Some schools will look at a very high SAT subject test score in math as improving a lower SATI score, but I am not sure what Vandy does. I am confident though that it could not hurt; it could only help, so go for it.
Where would you go if you got into every school on your list? (Okay, you’re allowed to take out completely unreasonable schools; you’re not getting into MIT or Princeton, so don’t count them!) If Vandy is at the top, I would seriously consider applying EDII. If you are a candidate who is strong enough to be accepted RD, then you could theoretically have a better shot ED, because schools want to increase their “yield” on acceptances, which, in turn, helps keep down their acceptance rate. That’s why most competitive schools are delighted to have really strong students applying ED.
