[quote=Anonymous]NP - just want to chime in to note that the PP who said the game is played at the ED, EA, SCEA point of time and not at RD is spot on. DS tried for SCEA at an Ivy but was deferred but got in EA where EA applications were allowed. All of his EAs. And his friends got into all of their EAs, as well. DS did not get into a single of his RDs (granted, all lottery schools) but the same happened to all of his friends. My DD had the same experience. So I would advise frontloading as much as possible, which might mean foregoing an ED or SCEA in favor of a wider EA sweep. Also, throw in an early rolling application just to get one acceptance in early on - it helps the student relax and gain perspective that this is all one big game of craps.[/quote]
