[quote=Anonymous]My DD fit your DD’s profile with a slightly lower test score. This is really about the ED strategy and/or thinking through what she is looking for. If your DD has a dream school, go for it ED, focus on the essays and anything optional (video or interview then do it). Know it is a total long shot. If not accepted ED 1 but has another top 15-30 non-Ivy R1 school or top 10-25 SLAC where your DD’s grades and scores put them in the top 25 percentile, do ED 2 there. My DD did not ED2 and ended up WL at schools like those I described. DD is going to a safety for her (not safety per DCUM metrics) but with a very nice scholarship and she chose it over higher ranked (but not tippy top) acceptance. Your DD will get some great acceptances. She should be a strong contender for Michigan and Wisconsin (possibly WL but eventually accepted). Also, honors college at Pitt is a nice to have early acceptance. Good luck. [/quote]
