Pomona college early decision?

Hi,

Should I apply ED to Pomona if my GPA is below their average accepted?

I plan on applying test optional. I have a lot of leadership ECs and come from a really small state. However, my GPA is supposed to be around a 3.6uw and a 4.1w. Is it worth it to ED? Pomona’s my top choice as of right now.

I can give any more info needed :)
