This was on the front page of the Exonian today, reported by my super-excellent best buddy and fellow senior Boaz Chandrasekhar: 64% of Exonians applied early to schools this fall.這是對頭版的exonian今天報導,由我的超級優秀的最好的好友和高級研究員博阿茲德拉薩卡: 64 %的exonians適用於早期的學校,今年秋天上市。 This is up from 58% last year.這是從58 %去年。 There are 315 people in the class of 2006, 30 of whom are postgraduates.有315人在課堂中的2006年,有30人是研究生。 Boaz wrote “early decision” in the article but I am hoping / assuming that that is a typo and that he really meant “early” in all its various forms, not that it really matters all that much.博阿茲寫道: “早日作出決定”在文章中,但我希望/假設這是一個錯字和他真的意味著“提前”在其所有的各種形式,而不是真的所有的事項很多。 ED probably makes for a bigger portion of the applicant pie, but there are some EA schools that are no slouches for applicants.教育署可能使一個更大的部分申請人的餅,但也有一些環境的學校,沒有slouches申請人。 It was also unclear as to whether or not this included ED II round school applications or not, but either way… a very formidable figure.與會者還不清楚是否有或沒有,這包括教育署第二輪學校申請或沒有,但無論哪種方式… …一項十分艱鉅的數字。 We all made estimates earlier in the term but none of us guessed quite this high.我們都取得了早些時候的估計,在任期內,但我們沒有人猜中,這相當高。

I’m publishing this to the web since it is, after all, already out in the world thanks to the Exonian.我出版這到Web ,因為它畢竟是,已經在世界上多虧了exonian 。 Very interesting.很有趣。 I expect that with that many people applying, some must have applied early to Columbia (which put out results yesterday afternoon) but I don’t know who they are or how many of them there were.我期望與很多人申請,有些必須有適用於早期哥倫比亞(即把結果昨天下午) ,但我不知道他們是誰,或其中有多少人有。

Crazy!瘋狂的!
