I’ve implemented some survey questions to try to begin making the predictions more accurate at some of the tougher schools. If you’re creating a new account, you’ll automatically be asked 7 easy questions (no writing involved). If you’ve already got an account, why not update your account so the algorithm can improve our predictions for you?

(Note – the prediction algorithm is not using this info yet because the site just started collecting it, but this will change in the weeks to come.)

Welcome, CCers. After getting some feedback requesting more information, I’ve made a couple changes. First, you will now see the predicted probability of admission in your profile, instead of just a “yes” or “no”. Second, the accuracy of the model that is giving you the prediction will be shown just below, so that you can get a better sense of how much you want to trust the prediction.

Cheers,

James
