Your top-level statistics are very competitive, I’m sure you are aware that the essays are a critical component of the application and will play a part in the final decision.

Although it’s not a guarantee, my S had similar statistics/EC and was accepted RD in Pratt. Your ED application improves your chances.

Best of luck.
