How much does ED help your chances?

<p>So I'm applying ED to Cornell's Dyson School of Business which is part of the CALS school and I'd like to know how much early decision helps people's chances. My SAT's and ACT's are average for CALS, I have SAT II's and 5's on multiple AP's, my GPA's a little low, but my EC's are strong in my guidance counselor's, honor society board, and this site's members' eyes, plus I have strong teacher, administrative, and alumni recommendations, and Cornell is my absolute dream school so Early Decision is my plan. Can anyone tell me of past luck with ED, or bad luck with it?</p>

<p>For sure apply ED. I was really similar to you when I applied last year, and I got in ED with the similar situation.</p>

<p>^Thank you! That makes me feel so much better!</p>
