<p>I've actually got everything prepared for Early Decision but after re-considering :
(1) I need significant financial aid as an international
(2) Scores are low considering I come from an English-speaking country and even in comparison to my peers (who won't be applying to Duke early though) ACT : 32 is prob my best.</p>
<p>Looking for opinions. What do you guys think?</p>
<p>Also I forgot to add that I’ll be doing some extra EC’s (research and whatnot) before RD and will be able to better my SAT scores. At the moment still sorta leaning toward applying.</p>
<p>Without seeing your stats, how can people know you?</p>
<p>I think solely number 1 makes you an extremely long shot.</p>
<p>Apply and after you do the research send a letter. With FA it will be tough, but go ED.</p>
