On my advice, my daugher went ED and was accepted. On the plus side, it was very painless - I could see a rising stress level that just vanished overnight. Also, she is thrilled about the school.

On the minus side, althought she visited the school and researched it, I feel that if she had, in April, several schools to choose from, she would have sweated the precise choice more. Also, one of the RD applications did not act on our cancellation and gave her a great merit scholarship - at a great school. Would have been interesting to have a couple of choices like that in pocket when deciding.

So, while we are very happy at this point, I might not advise RD if I had to do it again.
