[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Unless your DC has a very compelling story to tell, I would not waste an ED on a T20 university. My DS is a senior applying to schools with a 1500 and typical grades (top 5%) and leadership ECs at the school level. Applying to top 25-35 range universities and 15-30 range LACs. Applying ED a school where his SAT is at the median. Get the SAT up 50 points and it’s a different conversation. [/quote] Why not? That is the best way to get into one? My kid had similar stats (1480/3.98 uw/8 Ap largely stem) and got into everything outside the top 30 (and wl at tufts). So the ED was the best chance at the t10 they loved (my Alma mater--so yeah great school they would have loved it there) But with good targets and safeties you should get into most of those (my kid got into all of them most with great merit) [/quote]
