<p>Hi, I just finished Junior year and I am going to be going into my senior year so college applications are looming.
Just received my SAT II scores and I'm a bit worried.</p>

<p>i REALLY want to go to Duke. Know a few good friends who went there and have studied up on the school and im planning to apply there early.</p>

<p>Do the SAT subject tests really hinder my chances?

<p>Your SAT II scores are not great but they are not too bad either.
Decent chances at Duke (ED)</p>

<p>Good luck to you!</p>

<p>“am I doomed” Do you really believe this and are simply terribly mis-informed about Duke admissions? Or are you just preening or looking for back slaps?</p>

<p>SAT IIs above 700 are acceptable to most schools unless you are applying to some special programs where they are specific about some subject scores.</p>

<p>You should be fine with Duke.</p>
