<p>OP, it’s really hard to chance anyone for colleges really. Focus your energies on finding a good fit in all of the categories- reach, match, and safety colleges. Research the colleges statistics for their range of GPA and SAT/ACT scores. Find out what the college looks for in it’s applicants- do they value volunteering, would Texas be adding geographic diversity, etc… Go meet the college representative when they come to your town. ED is only a strategy that you use if you are sure that this is the place for you and you can attend financially. My S applied ED to his reach and it worked for him but not after an exhaustive search for the right fit. Good luck. Let us know where you land.</p>
