Chicago, Vanderbilt, Washu. A ton more doors open up if you drop the business program (which is unnecessary unless super into Accounting) and are open to economics.

Georgetown McDonough is another good one. I loved that program for DS - felt like a liberal arts program with a side of business. He didn't wind up there, but I think it would have been ideal.

It's why ED II exists at highly selective schools. It's specifically there to get those extraordinary students who for whatever reason didn't get into MIT or Stanford in the first round. ED II is a very different thing than ED I. Schools like Duke, Vanderbilt, Northwestern, and Chicago are looking for the great students who got shut out of HYPSM in SCEA or ED. And really, no one else in the ED II round.

And as always, GPA and test scores aren't enough. Every T20 school can fill their classes ten time over with perfect grades and test scores. But the highly selective ED II schools want that second look at the gifted students.

Over and over again with the lies. Less than 5,000 applicants in any admissions cycle have a perfect ACT or SAT score.

10x the aggregate T20 freshman class is over 600,000 seats.

So … why? Why do you propagate this lie that there are hundreds of thousands of kids with perfect test scores?

At our school many ED2 to U Chicago, Hopkins if pre med or Tufts/Bowdoin/Wesleyan if they want more of a LAC.

they aren't getting into Chicago or Hopkins for ED 2 if unhooked. If anything, these are harder than many ivies ED1.
