Help! DS has two favorites for ED1 and he needs to decide before 11/1!

Hmmm. As there are only a handful of REA schools, all of which are super super selective (barring Notre Dame and Georgetown, cough cough), is he wasting his best shot at #2, which he seems to prefer? Is he aware that he doesn’t get a real boost with REA at the schools that offer it, because most kids applying REA are already exceptionally well qualified? If he is hoping for a boost by applying REA, it isn’t the boost he might think it is.
