<p>I’m an Asian Indian straight guy from CT. I go to a competitive private high school known for grade deflation. I have a GPa of 3.5. Furthermore, I am a legacy and my dad has amigos that are willing to put in a word so to speak. I have done EC/work throughout high school and have an SAT of 2220 although I’m going to retake so it may be subject to change.I know that Columbia is a stretch and I can get into other great schools on ED guaranteed. Is Columbia worth sacrificing my ED on?</p>
<p>@viklovin if Columbia is your first choice and you can afford it then yes use your ED on Columbia</p>
