<p>EA- High Match
ED- Match</p>

<p>If you really like UMiami, apply ED and you have a really good shot. Good Luck! Chancr back? <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1544121-chance-duke-ed.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1544121-chance-duke-ed.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>I’d say both are matches if not high match. Good luck :)</p>

9

<p>I have to agree with the plurality, you’re a solid match with your stats. Good luck</p>

10

<p>How much would ED help me?</p>

11

<p>Bump.</p>

<p>Looking for more insight for EA vs ED.</p>

12

<p>I think that you’re a strong enough applicant to not need to worry about EA vs ED. You should be good for both—I wouldn’t say a shoo-in, but you’re very competitive, a match—, and it’s never bad to be open to more schools. EA may be the way to go unless you don’t plan on applying elsewhere.</p>

13

<p>ED- Low-mid match
EA- Match</p>

<p>Stats seem to be good enough. Maybe just try to improve the GPA a bit.</p>

14

<p>Bump of peace</p>

15

<p>ED - High match
EA - Match</p>

<p>Your stats definitely make you qualified. Good luck!</p>

16

<p>I think you are match either way. Your chances might be a little better if you apply ED, since you’ve obviously committed to attend.</p>

17

<p>EA- match
ED- low match</p>

<p>ED will help some, but I definitely think you could get accepted without ED.</p>

18

<p>I said say your a match for both. However do try to get your sat to 2100 cause then you can be considered for the full tuition scholarship!</p>

19

<p>EA: Mid-high match
ED: Match</p>

<p>With your stats and the upward trend I would say that you should be able to get in.</p>

<p>Only taking 6 APs now. Had to take English IV Honor’s in place of AP Lit to make schedule work. Doubt this will affect anything but thought I’d add that.</p>
