early decision/sat scores

<p>ok, this may sound like a dumb question, but i'm thinking about applying early decision to a couple of private schools, and the deadline is like early october. i'm taking the sats again on october 4, so with the early decision, are they going to accept/reject me based on my current scores or on the oct. 4 sat score that i send in later?</p>

<p>bummppp anyone?</p>

<p>I've never heard of anything before a Nov. 1st deadline for ED. If you are taking the 10/4 SAT and there really is an early October deadline, you may need to pay to rush your scores. Your best bet is to call the admissions office and find out what their policy is. Also, you can only apply to one school ED.
(You mentioned thinking about applying to "a couple.")</p>

<p>oops, i meant that i was applying to a couple schools and then one for ed. sorry bout that. and thanks for the advice!</p>
