Answered

Hello! Today the admissions calculator drastically changed, and my chances at my dream school (UPenn) changed from 46% to 11%. Were there any edits to the chances calculator? Thank you so much!

There was a notice that chancing has changed, i think they are looking into it to see if its all good, but ill just keep checking on it to see if its back to normal or if there’s a breakdown of the new chancing.

I think I heard college vine is looking into it since everyone was having that issue. Best thing we could do is just wait and see.

Hey @dev8,

I had the same question as well! Someone asked a similar question at this post (https://www.collegevine.com/questions/15103/what-did-my-chancing-change-so-drastically?utm_source=sendgrid.com&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=website) and received a pretty good answer from @CameronBameron. It's the best explanation that I've seen so far, and others are looking into what specifically changed in the chancing engine.

Let me know if this helps. Thanks!
