It’s really hard to say, but at least where I live it’s pretty clear Yale has ‘high priority’ schools and ‘low priority’ schools because at my daughter’s school, people accepted at Harvard and Stanford are routinely WL or denied at Yale, and they have admitted no one in 5 years (the last admitted student turned them down.) I wouldn’t draw a strict correlation, but I do believe ours is a low-priority school for them, hence the dismal outcomes.

My daughter has applied, but this is one outcome I am about 99% certain will be a deny or eternal WL - I rate her odds higher at all her other schools, simply because of the history.
