[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]EA or ED[/b] is sort of scammy no matter what. I didn't finish it but i was skimming one of those "who gets into college" books and author was arguing that these things are all for the colleges. So the higher acceptance rate isn't that kids have a greater chance of getting in--colleges just use the early rounds to cherry pick the kids they are looking for, whether that is full-pay, recruited athletes, URM, legacies, etc. so it is helpful for kids who really want certainty but the perception that chances of getting are higher may be unfounded and it might actually be the opposite if you don't fit the profile of what that school is seeking [/quote] Don't combine the two. Two completely different things. EA non-binding at a school is completely different than schools that offer ED. [/quote]
