<p>Hmm average stats, I suggest you should consider applying for RD because EA is really competitive.</p>

3

<p>Yeah I’m doing Regular Decision for everything.</p>

4

<p>Doesn’t ea have a higher acceptance rate though or is it because all the people with really good stats apply then</p>

<p>This is a great thread, before it wanders off-topic. <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/california-institute-technology/442418-anyone-wanting-know-their-chances-getting-into-caltech.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/california-institute-technology/442418-anyone-wanting-know-their-chances-getting-into-caltech.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>@gongmiester: I would say it’s the latter. You can see from the EA 2014 thread that so many people with great stats were deferred.</p>

7

<p>So you would say that I should apply regular application ?</p>

<p>Frankly speaking, it’s up to you. If you feel your ECs, GPA, and SAT scores are very competitive, by all means go ahead and apply EA. EA has a higher acceptance rate than RD, but this is due to the highly competitive pool of applicants.</p>
