Apply early to Stanford or Cornell?

<p>Hi,</p>

<p>I originally intended to do SCEA for Stanford but I only have one rec from a 11th grade teacher. I'm worried that my senior teacher won't know me well enough to write me a decent rec in time for early action. Anybody have this same problem but came through with it? Also, when should I ask my senior year teacher to write my rec if I apply early?
Lastly, whats the stats on SCEA acceptance vs Regular?
The reason why I'm thinking about Cornell is that I
m in NY and many students with my stats got into Cornell ED from my school.</p>
