[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In our non DMV private school, ED has advantages if you are applying to non T-5 but among the T-20. You still have to have very competitive stats. The simple advantage is in the RD round you are not being compared to the Harvard, MIT, and Stanford deferred kids in your school who have stronger stats than you and are now applying to 22 schools in RD. [/quote] Confused. Did you mean "simple advantage" in the ED (not RD) round above?[/quote] Yes, I meant the most obvious advantage at EDing at our competitive private school. My student has strong stats (1590 SAT and 4 UW GPA) and decent ECS but nothing matching the national level awards and 'entrepreneurship' efforts projected by some of the other kids who are all crowding around MIT, Harvard, and Yale in the early rounds. Most of them get deferred and apply to all the T-20 colleges in the RD round.[/quote]
