I agree, I think the doom-and-gloom scenarios of apps being up 40% or more and grossly exaggerated. If that were the case, AdComs couldn't possibly give each candidate the due diligence required. I've seen the math on it before, and they do have a finite amount of time before they start pushing deadlines and pissing people off. 20% would seem like a decent amount of increase

so the Berkeley stats last year was about a 20% increase, and this year it seems to be roughly a 15% increase based on R1 numbers.
