<p>祝贺</p>

每年到这个时候大家都想讨论这个问题，特别是明年后年有毕业生的家庭，谁不想收集点身边小孩的“成功”或者“失败”的案例？但是当事人又都怕讨论这个问题---168砖头甚至酸葡萄太多。知足也不敢出头露面了。<br>&nbsp;<br>从录取新生的角度衡量一个学校的好坏有几个数据---注意录取新生的角度并不代表这个学校真好（坏），还有其他角度。一是录取率：录取的人占报名的比例。这个数字到处都有。第二个就是录取后真正去的（yield)。由于被学校录取的学生不一定来，学校要多取一些，留有余地。但也不能太多---万一大家决定都来了宿舍教室就不够了。如果来的比预期的少了，还可以从waiting list上补几个。下面这个文章回答了各个学校的yield：<a href="http://www.usnews.com/education/best-colleges/articles/2013/01/28/national-universities-where-most-accepted-students-enroll">http://www.usnews.com/education/best-colleges/articles/2013/01/28/national-universities-where-most-accepted-students-enroll</a>.<br>&nbsp;<br>根据这个表格，我们可以看出哈佛每年录取2000名学生。最后来1500人。<br>&nbsp;<br>当然我们不能根据此表得出杨百翰大学是全国第一的结论。当一个学生同时被A校和B校录取，根据他的最终选择，我们能够算出两校之间的录取率。网上有这个统计。感兴趣的自己查。<br>

七，八年前 Northview 就先后有两个中国女孩被哈佛录取而没去，好像也都是酷爱文学的青年，并没有那么 big deal. 要在今天的氛围里她们会面对更大的压力。<br>

就像许多人拒绝耶鲁去哈佛一样, 很普通的事, 没什么大惊小怪的.
