Thank you for reply googledrone –

It’s interesting to see other opinions. I was talking with my counselor and my parents about the essay topic recently – they’re split between seeing the age as trivial and seeing it as something that has enough subject to truly fill the “write about your identity” prompt on the personal statement. I think I’m retaking it anyway, since it seems to me that the reason the acceptance on Early Admissions is much higher is because people who are sure they’ll get in and have the higher SAT Scores to show it apply then, and that more desirable people accumulate in the Early Action as a result. Thanks for replying!
