I’m sorry I don’t have a good answer, but I felt like someone should respond to you.
2020 is a really weird year for college admissions (as you probably already know). We don’t know what the ED numbers look like, but its entirely possible they’ll be much higher (Cornell is up 50%) or lower (FSU is down 50%) than prior years so past experience might not be super-helpful in figuring out how things will go.
The unfortunate truth is that none of us really know what this year will look like. All I can do is wish you good luck.

we’re quite similar, despite the fact that I am an international Chinese applicant haha
I have seen a big fluctuation on the number of applicants as an international student, especially as a Chinese, due to Trump’s immigration policies and the COVID. So, as VA2025Dad has mentioned, this year is really weird… The tuition fee has also stopped many people from applying. However, the test optional policy has attracted more people
(especially Chinese, since there’s no SAT center in China for Chinese citizens) to apply.
Hope we’ll be the lucky ones when I wake up tomorrow morning! (that’s when the result come out in Beijing time…
