Are the ED applications reviewed with a tougher standard?

I was deferred from ED, and will be put in to the regular decision pool. :\ Anyway, are the ED apps reviewed with a higher standard? I believe they accept around 100 for ED, and was wondering if the standard is relative amongst other applicants.

According to the admission office they accept 40 ed applicants out of 100.

Ah that's right, I completely mistook the numbers. The speaker at the open house said 100 ED applicants.. woops!
