We conduct a laboratory experiment to investigate how "advice" from experienced participants can affect student’s preference submission decision in high school admission or college admission processes. Results show that participants are able to learn their best strategies by repeating the admission experiments, and would like to give sincere advice about best strategies to their successors. More importantly, successors also tend to accept the advice, thus coordinating on the Pareto efficient outcome. This implies that policy maker can encourage students to adopt best strategies when submitting their preferences over schools or universities by providing advice collected from experienced people, leading to a more efficient admission outcome.
