Below is a link to some of the stats of the admitted class. I’ve predicted that waitlists will be in play more than ever this spring, however the conventional wisdom is difficult to process given these numbers. The fact that 50% of admitted students were “test-optional” strikes me as a bit of an experiment. The “experts” were predicting that selective schools weren’t sincere about test-optional evaluation and would fallback to test scores. Clearly, Wellesley was serious. If this is representative of the results of other selective schools, there is no predictability.
