That seems intuitively correct, JBS and CU. Perhaps that is what Bayesian analysis would tell us, though a knowledge of those procedures somehow eluded me in my undergraduate and subsequent life, which has been more devoted to the expressive than the analytic. However, the University OUGHT to be privileging the first-choice kids who are applying ED - more so for ED1 than for ED 2, but more for either of these than for EA or RD. Perhaps, as you suggest, JBS, a systematic tabulation of the stats provided by the kids in these other threads would bear this out. It would be nice to know just what the degree of advantage is in each pool. But however one extrapolates the numbers to take account of differentials in the quality of the various pools, the chances must be better mutatis mutandis in the ED pools.
