<p>I've been recently checking out applications and had a few questions. I live near Boston, and hope go to college there. Should I use the common application or the specific one for each school? And when a school asks what are you top school choices... do you have to be completely honest? And finally, what is the differece between early action and early decision? Sorry, this whole college is a little mind-boggling.</p>
<p>usually school tell u if they take common app and then u use it. u can't use common app for any college. and early decision ,when u apply and find out early,is binding...if u get in u have to go , while early action, apply early and find out early, is not binding.</p>
