<p>I am very interested in Caltech and will apply EA. I'm wondering: what type of people get in EA?</p>
<p>The kind that are intelligent, hardworking, and passionate about math and science :P</p>
<p>correct me if i am wrong, but the same holds for RD ppl, too :p</p>
<p>Absolutly not. Caltech hates people who are math and science motivated. Where on earth did you hear that piece of BS?</p>
<p>DMRenrel, calm down. Don't you realize that propaganda can have a very powerful influence on clueless college applicants? They don't realize that they can't always trust what Caltech asserts about itself on its application, website, etc.</p>
<p>What I meant was what seperates an EA admit from an EA deferre that is accepted in RD?</p>
<p>My bad. And to actually answer the question and not just try to be funny-</p>
<p>I'd imagine, though I'm 112% guessing, that EA admits are just RD admits that show slightly better everything.</p>
<p>then why are EA chances "slightly better"?</p>
<p>I don't know where you're quoting that from. My only thought would be this:</p>
<p>If you're getting that from a higher acceptance rate for EA (which I don't know either way about), it's probably because to apply EA to CALTECH you have to think pretty highly of yourself. A higher quality pool with higher standards can have a higher acceptance rate if the quality increase outweighs the pickiness increase.</p>
<p>Does anyone have EA stats for Caltech?</p>
<p>I wanna apply EA to caltech but 'm an international :(</p>
