[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]ED is best used for a school that is within reach but not a shoe-in. [/quote] This was DS’s approach this year (22). He is an unhooked cisgender white male from a very affluent zip code, attending a nationally known private school. Full pay. It “helped” him that he genuinely was uninterested in HY or S - so he didn’t waste time contemplating using (wasting) ED1 or 2 there. Ditto any other Ivy except Princeton for one specific major. Reasoning that the odds for a P admit were beyond long (due to impressive and legacy classmates), DS focused on other top schools with his major where his stats were their > 50%-tile. These all had admit rates < 10% last year, so he understood the odds [/quote]
