in the past, the polls only allow people who voted to view them w/o an additional click so that's why i added that option. If there's a moderator reading this, could you delete the last row that says: "i'm not a current applicant"? it's messing up the percentages. thanks.

here's recalculated values w/o last row.

0 acceptances; 0 interviews 2 2.86%
0 acceptances; 1+ interviews 10 14.29%
Holding 1 acceptance; only 1 offer 14 20.00%
Holding 1 acceptance; multiple offers 6 8.57%
Holding 2 acceptances 14 20.00%
Holding 3 acceptances 12 17.14%
Holding 4+ acceptances 12 17.14%
70 100.00%

just pre-allo
 
mildly interesting... bump
 
according to this poll our overachieving SDN crowd has a over 80% acceptance rate. self reported of course :rolleyes:
 
re-calculated values.....pretty similar to last year's values. for those who haven't been accepted yet...there's still hope! By july, nearly 85% of SDNers will typically be accepted (if the trend continues).
