You should not just apply ED since you think you will have a better chance to get in. You should apply ED if you love Amherst and it is your top choice, which it is hard not to. Being able to tell one of the Deans of admission on Deans Day that you are set on Amherst gives them the chance to give you an even more specific read. If you are undecided or have a different LAC as a first choice they can also advise you and tell you your chances for those schools. Amherst was my first choice when I went to Deans Day; however, I was still considering Williams, Middlebury, and Haverford, so I was able to get advice for my chances at all of the schools.
