<p>Would really appreciate a response...thanx! :)</p>
<p>Competitive but not a slam dunk, imo. Class rank puts you into the lower third of the class and your ACT is at the upper end of the interquartile range. Your EC's may pull you through.</p>
<p>Side note: I think Early Evaluation is one of the most civilized practices in college admissions and I wish more schools would do it.</p>
<p>I <em>think</em> deferred ED's are automatically given EE takes but I don't know for sure. From looking at the stats last year, most people do <em>not</em> do EE...but a significant fraction do. 1/4? 1/3?</p>
<p>I don't know if it's advantage, beyond the adcom considering your app when they're less stressed, but if you're living with an EA/ED rejection/referral that EE "probable" (if it comes) is a tonic for the spirits.</p>
