<p>awesome thanks for the replies! Im' applying RD by the way. Is the applicant pool stronger in RD or ED</p>

<p>It is extremely unlikely that you won't get into Bowdoin or possibly any school including Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Stanford. The combo of val, 1510 SAT, UT, class pres, sports captain is rare at any school. </p>

<p>I think the RD pool is probably stronger because many people who are not as strong are trying to use ED to achieve an extra boost. In addition, the RD pool will have many very qualified candidates that view Bowdoin as a second choice school, but may end up there depending on how their apps to Princeton, Dartmouth, Williams, Amherst turn out.</p>

<p>Yeah Williams is actually my first choice too so we'll see how that turns out.</p>
