<p>I was researching this school and saw that last year 53% of students who applied early action were accepted while only 40% of students who applied regular decision were accepted. I have around a 1230 sat score (math and reading) and around a 1850 sat score combined so my stats are a little low. I have a decent amount of extra curricular activities and around 75 hours of volunteer work. I also have a 97 weighted gpa. My question is would it be beneficial for me to apply early action. Would that give me a better chance? Also if i applied early action would the school still look at my senior grades from the beginning of the year? Thanks.</p>
