I don't remember the exact numbers, but the number of schools with yield rates >50% is extremely small. I remember a tour of Tufts back in the 90s where they talked about the 12,000 applications they got for a class of 1,100 -- but didn't mention that they admitted more than 4,000 in order to get that class of 1,100.
