Admitted to Duke

<p>oh. my. god. I just got into Duke and I am SOOOOO sicked right now!! I applied ED and I didn't think I'd get in b/c i have an SAT score of 1230 (2400 scale) and I barely made the community service requirement for my school...my GPA was pretty good tho, 3.0 (weighted) and I took some AP classes my senior year so I guess I was pretty well-qualified. but AHHHH I'm so excited I can't believe it!</p>

<p>You got into Duke with a 1230? Holy cow..... Was your essay amazing or something?</p>

<p>maybe he meant 1230/1600. if not, he's probably a troll, and it's not funny.</p>

<p>He wrote in his post that it was /2400...</p>

<p>C'mon, now...</p>

<p>^^^LOL, warblersrule!</p>

<p>This is such a troll.</p>

<p>WHAT?? Please repeat!</p>

<p>i think my jaw just hit the floor.</p>

<p>no offense, but you seem to be a bit incompetent. especially for duke.</p>

<p>idk, maybe you were just overly ecstatic and you meant you had a 4.0 gpa and your SATS were out of 1600....because you could get a 1200/2400 by blindly picking answers (practically).</p>

<p>im confused.</p>

<p>it's called a troll. people are so gullible.</p>

<p>umm ok... sorry my sat scores are "incompetent," but im a really bad test taker. REALLY bad. and i wrote ab. that in the additional info section of the common app, so maybe they took that into account...</p>

<p>and i do a lot of extracurricular activities so w/e. grades arent evrything.</p>

<p>definitely something ur not telling us lol</p>

<p>yea, he's a troll lol.</p>

<p>He made a thread and got a bunch of you guys to reply to it in disbelief and he's sitting at his comp screen laughing</p>

<p>what's a troll? sorry! but i really don't know.
and ps, it does seem odd--there must be a catch to his/her acceptance b/c about thirty people or something like that applied at my school, which is pretty competitive, and all but one got deferred or rejected.</p>

<p>I didn't think that internet people were this credulous.</p>

<p>For real? (10chars)</p>

<p>Failure troll fails badly; at least make something believable to give people fake hopes instead of posting something blatantly stupid.</p>

<p>I would have expected that by being on a college website, full of older high schoolers and mature individuals, I could this sort of thing. I suppose not.</p>
