[quote=Anonymous]Our experience at Sidwell was that about 30-40% of the students were admitted EA / ED. And rather than taking an approach whereby a really smart student just applies to a number of the most selective schools (effectively rolling the dice in each case) many students took a lot of time to think about the "why" for a specific school. And perhaps their essays reflected this. This approach also allows the counseling office to make a strong appeal for each student based upon specific and not generic attributes. Once you get above a certain SAT, the correlation to success falls away. [/quote]
