Early Action VS. Including Senior Grades

Applying to College
1

<p>Let's say a school (In my case, Case Western Reserve and UChicago) has early action and regular options. Would I be better off doing early action or waiting until regular deadline so my improved gpa and class rank from 1st semester senior year grades** would be included?</p>

<p>**(assuming that they would be all As with 5 out of 7 classes being weighted credit)</p>

<p>So if I were to hypothetically get all As, which option would I be better off with??? If it matters, UChicago is a pretty high reach for me and case western is a match. Does choosing early action particularly help you out at either of these schools?</p>

<p>Advice :)?</p>

<p>Ask on the Case and Chicago forums, and ask the admissions folks as well. My D1 faced the same issue (albeit for ED at a different school), and she just asked the adcoms straight out.</p>

<p>What is your current GPA? What would your cumulative GPA be if you got all As? </p>

<p>Come back with those numbers, and I’ll give you my advice</p>
