[quote=Anonymous]You are correct OP about general EA and ED rules.
PP correct too about other plans like SCEA and REA etc.
You will want to research all of the particulars of each school's plans.  They can really vary.
Rolling admissions schools are also nice to add to the mix, and even these can vary.  Some allow you to apply in August, when the Common App opens up, with self reported grades (so your school doesn't need to send transcript).  A twist on that is Wake Forest - not a rolling admissions school however if you apply binding ED, they will make decisions on a rolling basis (and the due date for the application is earlier than most so you find out early).  Some like I believe Penn State are rolling admission too but only after January.
They say that ED gives less of an advantage than the stats would seem, but still better than RD.  And that EA is great for finding out earlier, but actual chances are similar to RD (lots of deferrals in EA round).
Lots of things to consider.
Good luck![/quote]
