[quote=Anonymous]OP, your last reply got swallowed into the PP. But yes, I'd agree that you should forget about ED at Ivies/Duke/Stanford and consider ED at a school like Emory or Tufts (Georgetown doesn't have ED, sadly.) I'm sure your DD's stats are impressive but the reality is that nearly all the applicants to the top schools have the same stats. Maybe her EC will help her stand out, but there are a gazillion interesting kids out there, some truly unique and some professionally curated. Either way, ED to a target is a much more viable strategy than ED to a reach. But she should be prepared with an ED2 pick as well and do EA anywhere it's offered. Btw 1480-1500 is a great SAT score, but in the TO era, the median stats are increasingly stratospheric because those who score below the middle 50% don't submit their scores. It's ridiculous because it means every year the middle 50 creeps higher. [/quote]
