I thought this too, but its actually more like 50-60% for instaters. You have a 78% chance of getting in if you are given an INTERVIEW but after you are waitlisted, the chance drops a little bit. (Assuming trends are the same from previous years)
In the end, it doesnt really matter to dwell on stupid statistics, all that matters is that you get the call.
Yeah that makes more sense and esp. part about most if it being geared towards Mich residents.
I don't think any school gets through 78% of their waitlist. Most at best get through 33%-50% of it.
But 70-80% of total number interviewed is a different story altogether and makes quite more sense based on what I've seen with other schools.
