<p>I think you’d make a great candidate I never applied ED to anywhere, and to be honest my #'s are lower than yours - 1390 on the old SAT, 2130 on the new; 3.81 at the end of junior year, but 2 C’s in Calculus BC shot it down. I was rather <em>surprised</em> I got waitlisted, not because of tufts syndrome but because I was somewhat expecting a rejection, since this year is the most brutal in terms of competition, and I had ugly marks. I think going ED will of course boost your chances, but again nobody can tell for sure, this year has been so unpredictable at my school.</p>
<p>I got into NYU and I think I’m going there, though I liked Tufts for their focus on undergraduate education and their emphasis on cultural understanding. NYU is mighty diverse too, in one of the most dynamic cities in the country, but the class size is so large and they focus on fields that I’m not pursuing.</p>
