不得不问

请教达人，对于申请轮次中的early action与一般轮次相比，除了早点知道结果外，究竟能起到多大的实质性作用，

是否与仅挨着的后一轮相比，能够为申请人的申请实战中加分呢？似乎CD中还没有过深入的探讨，对此心中迷团重重，还望赐教，谢谢。

Early action shows your commitment to the school.  I think it generally has a higher acceptance rate.

Thanks. But it also requires much earlier deposit suppose the applicant is admitted. If the applicant not very sure the school and also wants to apply for othe schools(but also not very sure whether the other schools could admit him), does the early action meaningful?

Early action is noncommital but early decision is.  You should only apply early decision to your first choice.
