<p>my original plan was to apply ED for cornell and bask in the glory of early advantage. but lately ive been in a time crunch. my teacher recs and info are due in a week at my school, and i still have to write my statements. i told myself if i got a 31+ on the ACT id apply, if not id need to retake it, as well as the SAT (i was planning on using the ACT to overshadow my not so hot SAT). but heres the thing: i downloaded the early score and got a 31, rounded up from 30.5. they havent given me my essay score, but it can really go both ways; i need a 31 or higher to keep my current composite score. my urgent question to you is: is the early advantage worth the trouble? given my info (posted below) would it be more advantageous to just wait till RD and boost my current scores, or to send in what i have? please please PLEASE help me out. (btw im applying to CAS)</p>
