Unpopular opinion: Yale is only so competitive because the class size is so small
has a splitter ever gotten in to Yale since 2022?

Has anyone gone complete at YLS? I'm getting a bit concerned.
@ayeyoooyu yes, took 4 days between submitting on cas and hearing confirmation from them (applied in early oct)
what does gone complete mean?
