[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wouldn’t make sense to ED to a target. You’re just playing the odds. Both DC submitted ED to reaches and were accepted…..but understand that they were still in the 50-75% percentile which is still a reach when acceptance rate is <10%.[/quote] Why wouldn't it? I have a kid who could very easily have an almost safety as his top choice. If he knows it's his #1 choice, why not ED and be done? [/quote] I suppose but why would DC target a safety?[/quote] In his case, because he has very specific academic interests, and the top person in his very narrow field is at a school where he's far above the 75th percentile, and they accept the majority of applicants.
