[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Only ED if it is your DC’s absolute first choice. [/quote] This is increasingly bad advice. Never ED to a school that you have almost no shot of getting into; that wastes your ED card. Duke? The majority of non-hooked applicants have a 0% chance of admission, ED or not. This is true for most top schools. A very small minority of non-hooked kids have a much greater chance, whether it is 10, 20, or 30%. If you cannot say with confidence why your kid is in that small minority, you are not buying a lottery ticket (where anyone could win) but throwing away your kid’s chances of getting into a school ED which is the next tier or two down.[/quote]
