[quote=Anonymous]I think the short answer is don't apply ED if it's not the first choice school. My kids applied ED and got into T20 schools in that round. One and done. Very simple. Neither is spending four years lamenting their chances at Harvard or Princeton because these weren't schools they wanted to go to regardless. Having gone though this though, I do think the SCEA schools - Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Stanford, CalTech, Notre Dame - are losing a lot of talent because of Early Decision. Those smart students aren't applying anymore because they were already accepted elsewhere. So the way it's working today is that a lot of accepted HYPSM students today are rejects from the early round elsewhere. The ED schools are generally taking the best students as quickly as they can. And Harvard and Princeton get the leftovers. [/quote]
