<p>1) If we have a bad AP score(3) but then all 5s on everything else...do we need to send them an explaination or something if we have a valid reason?
2) does it look bad to take the SAT 3 times?
3)Is it true Pton has a higher early admit rate...how much?
4)ANy advice in the essays...please?</p>
<p>Thanks for answering the questions especially if anyone does #4</p>
<p>high admin rate, not really. Last year's regular was 7.8%. Overall 10.2%, basically no difference than other top schools.</p>
<p>Um, yes, there's a huge difference between RD and ED.
ED acceptance rate last year was 26.8%, while RD was only (as stated above) 7.8%.
Regarding the first point: don't worry about it. The 3 won't hurt, and the 5s will only help.</p>
<p>wow was it really 26.8%?????</p>
<p>oh and by the way my SAT score: 2160 (M710 V700 W750 E12)</p>
<p>their ED admit rate is high, but the ED class also includes (or atleast most) of the recruited athletes, who an average student is not competing against. The ED pool also contains a higher portion of legacys who also get a boost in admissions, thus I don't think that the actual difference in admit rates for an average princeton applicant differs that significantly between the two rounds/</p>
<p>Goooooooooooo Italy~!</p>
