<p>Some feedback would be greatly appreciated </p>
<p>BTY, what is the difference between ED and RD? Im really noob at this stuff, please tell me.</p>
<p>JHU is a match for you. My guess is that you will most likely get in.</p>
<p>What is JHU? Is that Johns Hopskins University? If so, I might apply there because my stats are similar to yours! :) I never thought I'd have a chance there, but I might after all! Good luck if you do end up applying!!!! Take care!</p>
<p>NHS=national honor society</p>
<p>So like what is ED and RD. Is it a type of med school there? becuase i would really like to know, thanks for your feedback</p>
<p>med school. lol :)</p>
<p>ED is an abbreviation for Early Decision. meaning, colleges will notify of your acceptance ( or rejection) in the winter ( instead of the usual April).</p>
<p>RD ( aka "the norm") is an abb. for Regular Decision. meaning, you apply to the college before their deadline, and they notify you of your acceptance/rejection in April.</p>
<p>this is exactly what you need:

<p>Thanks alot!, that explanation really helped me out. But if i want to go ED or EA does that mean that i have to apply for college by November of Senior year? And have all of my SAT's and things done by then?</p>
<p>It sounds like you might crash and burn, so tread lightly.</p>
<p>Otherwise, good luck and you'll probably get in.</p>

<p>Yay fellow '09s :D
I think you have a solid chance.
