I’ve been around here for a while, but not as long as some, and I don’t know of a single resource for the various application types. Every school and every applicant are different so what might be “better” in one circumstance may not be better for someone else.
I am also a bit confused about what you are asking but some things worth pointing out are:
- Not every school offers an EA option
- Some ED acceptance rates offer false optimism since a large number of students accepted that route are recruited athletes, legacy students, or some other preferred group and not an “average” student
- If you need the ability to compare financial aid offers, ED applications generally are not the way to go
- Some early application deadlines coincide with priority deadlines for competitive scholarships or honors programs
I guess the short answer is it depends
