[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The other issue is there is very little advantage with SCEA unless you are hooked (athletes and legacies, questbridge).  
I think a better question for your DC is whether it is better to apply ED to say Northwestern or Cornell where there is a boost for ED and perhaps your student may be the best student from your school applying? [/quote]

Or Brown, Duke, Columbia, Rice, Vanderbilt.[/quote]
Rice, NU, Chicago, JHU, and Vandy have ED2, these are nice options after SCEA reject.[/quote]

NU does not have ED2.  Not sure why an SCEA reject wouldn't be able to get into a few of these schools RD...[/quote]
That is true from our school.  They also apply to the other four HYPSM RD.  Some got in.[/quote]

What are the stats of these kids who hit in HYPMS in RD after early rejection?[/quote]

At our private, they are usually very special (niche major + matching high profile ECs/awards) or Val/sal equivalent.

The ones a notch lower who are rejected HYPSM, get into Dartmouth/ Northwestern/ Cornell/ Penn/ Brown/ Columbia and a few others in RD.[/quote]
