[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]But to help OP or anyone in this situation, is there something DD can do to make her stand out? Should DD apply EA to one of these schools? Put all her eggs in one basket and show extreme interest in said school? Would that help? Or would it help if DD knew who else was applying from her class to the same schools? (e.g., is there a legacy applying to H? not Y?) I mean, could it come down to who's applying from her class? And maybe choosing the less-popular school (which I realize is difficult w/r/t HYP).[/quote] HYP don't care about demonstrated interest - they assume everyone is interested in them. Even EA doesn't give much of a boost. The smart thing would be to identify just about any other school (other than Stanford or MIT) and apply binding ED there - where a well-qualified kid like this one would definitely get an admissions bump for applying early [/quote]
