Will be a problem if I decide to apply Duke’s BME in the Pratt school of engineering without choosing physics in my profile? I’m worried cuz their website wrote “strongly recommend physics”.
Yes, that means required 99% of the time. However, if you don’t apply, you’ll never know.
You can’t worry about what you have - you put forth the best you and hope for the a positive result. Duke is a difficult admit for anyone - even if you did have Physics.
Physics recommended does not mean it has to be IB. If you had GCSE physics or integrated sciences, you’re fine. If you never had any physics, it’s more if a challenge
