USNA Class of 2027 Waiting and Speculating

DDCopilot said:
Well for all the MD Candidates still waiting… I pulled the last 5 years’ data into a spreadsheet and about 34% of the reported appointments in MD come after April 15th as compared to 17% of all appointments. So hang in there!!

(Ps this is a pretty small sample so take it for what it is)

how did you find this data?

Thank you- is this because of a lot of applicant in MD and might need more time ?

Honestly I have no idea. It could be that or just a fluke of who reported their appointments over the last 5 years. It’s a nice data point to hang some hope on though :)

Spreadsheets are my love language. :)

My DD is running the show over here so I did the only thing I could…I copied the last 5 years data into a spreadsheet and started to do some analysis on it. I posted on another thread some of the limited conclusions I could draw but the dataset is likely not representative of the overall candidate appointment experience. I’m happy to look at anything for anyone on here (as time and work allows) if you all have any questions or want to see anything. I’ll do my best to not draw poor conclusions with the data.

I’m pretty sure the most competitive areas (MD, VA, TX, CA) that this is the case. Thanks for the data!:) Certainly put a smile on my face for a mintier this am (DS is still CPR in VA!)
 
Does anyone have insight to appointments in NH? I’ve only seen an couple and I’m still CPR.

I was curious about it as well - namely how representative of the whole plebe class in any given year is the sample in this forum. For example, last year about 12 appointments reported here came off WL. The sample size on this forum was about 160 appointments, which makes it about 13% (?) of the class of 2026. If the sample was representative of the total population (including people coming off WL), that would mean that about 92 appointments for that class came off WL. Is that even possible?

I don't think it is representative at all. it probably skews towards people waiting so likely the waitlist numbers are higher than the whole population. but that's a guess.

though I do think directionally its probably pretty good. for example, I'm comfortable saying its ;likely that more (on average) wait list appointments happen in MD but the percentage itself is meaningless.

Why more waitlist in MD because of more applicants?

no idea! could be they recruit athletes heavily around here or its close so there is more awareness/more applicants... could be we have a superior state flag and the navy appreciates that immensely, but only after making our candidates suffer :p.

IL is still pretty under-represented based on the population. I think. Based on our limited numbers available anyway. And this is what I tell myself to keep hope alive.
