I am applying ED to M&T only, but I am still considering ED or RD for engineering if I am deferred.

Unweighted GPA- 4.0
Weighted GPA- 4.65
IB full diploma candidate

ACT- 34 super- I took the October ACT with writing so I do not think that it will be sent before then.

Tennessee Governor’s School for Science and Engineering
Eagle Scout
Co-founder of school’s ultimate frisbee team
Summer internship with med device company
Trombone in band and state honors related with that
DECA state in accounting
Model UN and Youth in Government- state leadership position
Chess team, Mu Alpha Theta, etc.

AP Scores- 7 tests, all 3s and 4s

IB Scores- Will take 7 total

I know M&T is not guaranteed for anyone and it will likely come down to my essays, but would it be worth it to ED to engineering too if I get differed?

Also, what is some advice for how to be a stronger candidate for admissions overall? I have heard as general advice that I need to appear specialized instead of well rounded, but what does that mean for my application?
