just curious, how important is it to apply SCEA v. RD

There’s no difference apart from when you get your results; the difference in the acceptance rates is evened out by the extremely strong pool in the SCEA round. I got in through SCEA, but if you weren’t 100% confident on your essays/application, then it’s better you went RD

EA acceptance was 13.5% this year; I’d estimate the RD acceptance to be around 7.5%
