<p>Did Penn because in the past few years, our school's ED rate has been 12 out of 15 and the overall rate's pretty high, despite it only being my 3rd choice. However, between CAS and Engineering, there were 5 total apps this year. 4 legacies...and me.
...
The good news is that 4 is the most kids from my school who have ever gotten early into Penn in one year!!
Meanwhile, I didn't apply early to Columbia despite doing their summer program and it being my first choice since I feared a stronger pool from my school. Turned out only to be 3 applicants from my school, 2 deferred and 1 rejected, worst Columbia rate from my school ever.
Also, nobody went Dart early this year...
OOPS!! ;-)</p>
<p>P.S. HEY BANANAFISH!! Loveee seeing people I know from real life on CC...dayum gurl, I can't believe you have 83 posts! Hit CC rehab, k??</p>
<p>CMC.. I didn't because my other top choice is UNC and I wanted to see how that would turn out. Still waiting to hear from both (UNC will be within a week) but I kind of wish I had just gone ahead and done Questbridge for CMC. oh well, everything will work...</p>
<p>Johns Hopkins for me as well. I got deferred from Cornell, and I am absolutely positive I would have been accepted early to JHU. For RD, it's about as hard to get in as a mid-Ivy...</p>
<p>what about the schools you just regret not applying to at all?</p>
<p>I regret not applying ED to Chicago, and not applying at all to Columbia(because I don;t have 2 sat's2) although Columbia has been one of my fav university for the past 2 year.</p>
<p>Wharton</p>
<p>Though to think about it, it was probably a safer idea for me to just go with Yale early even though I got rejected. It would be terrible to be forced to go to a school and then find another school you really like.</p>
<p>Plus since then, I've learned to improve my app and whatnot</p>
<p>so so true.</p>
<p>I wish I had applied to several schools EA instead of applying ED to one.</p>
