[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]ED is a manipulative tool colleges use to gain a more attractive yield at the expense of student insecurity. I wish ED would go away. But they only justification for it from a student perspective is if it is their definitive 1st choice, bar none. If they don't know, wait and do RD. Don't force yourself toward a 3rd or 2nd choice because of fear. Go only for your #1 and if it doesn't work out, just default to RD like most people. [/quote] I disagree with your opinion that ED a manipulative tool. However, I 100 percent agree that a kid should only apply ED to a school if it’s the kid’s first choice, bar none. If successful, it relieves one of a lot of pressure and anxiety. Both my kids did this, as did I when I was a kid. In all of our situations it was a case of “if this school takes me, I’m going there,” so why not ED? This is the only reason why someone should ED.[/quote]
