Treat the percentage as a rough guide. Most applicants apply to several schools (the average is 4.3) and a school's applicant count includes people who never finish, so seats divided by applicants is not the share of applicants who got in. For a fairer read, compare your own numbers with the class: stats checker.
Closest in applicants per seat: Houston (6.3) and New England (NECO) (6.1).
