Early Action for safety or reach schools?

<p>I'm currently a junior and my counselor told me that I should apply early action for only my safety schools because I'll be retaking SAT 1 in October and one more SAT 2 in November.I'm pretty sure my GPA will go up more after the 2 marking periods in senior year. Should I just apply to some of my reach schools for early action? or just apply to safety schools only since my SAT scores and GPA are not that satisfying to me now...</p>

<p>if you think you would benefit from another semester, then i’d encourage you to wait, especially if you’re EA schools have reputations for outright rejecting a lot of people (as opposed to schools that defer many applicants)</p>
