It's an interesting idea, but you have to be careful about these mathematical proofs of optimality.
First of all, it is very hard to rank the schools before seeing the offers, visiting the campuses, doing more thorough research (which you may not have as much time to do while preparing your applications).
Second of all, there are other factors involved. Where did your friends and boyfriend/girlfriend get in to? This is one big problem of the medical placement system, especially for those who are married by then.
- tokenadult 18y agoWhere did your friends and boyfriend/girlfriend get in to? Yes, the mathematical proof of optimality only applies to one snapshot of time. Having exactly one choice of college after a date certain is a feature of any admission system, but there is considerable argument for that date certain being as late as possible.
