Building scrapers?

[morpheus]

I came across this old post from the Statistics forum

http://forum.thegradcafe.com/topic/51483-scraped-admissions-data/

and I've been using persistent_homology's python script to mess around with acceptance/rejection trends in my own field. Is anyone else overanalyzing?

For instance... here's the (rough) acceptance chart for "applied+math" acceptances in 2015 (February-April shown). Looks like we have an active week ahead!

Haha yeah, every week is like... made it through Tuesday!

Whew! I know this is not my field, but I am seriously relieved to see this and know that Tuesday is over (for this week anyway)!
