Anybody who got into Duke Engineering?

Applying to College

<p>What were your stats (EC's; GPA; SAT, etc)?
Do you think Duke looks at everything...or just the numbers (GPA, SAT, etc.)?
Is there anything in particular that they like to see??</p>

<p>SAT: 1980</p>

<p>SATII: 800,790,680</p>

<p>ECs: lots of good things (peace camps etc.)</p>

<p>Essay: It was just one or two sentence(s). Lol.</p>

<p>really…wow…maybe they like international students a bunch. So I guess they like interesting extracurriculars??? and good SAT II scores?? thanks a bunch.</p>

<p>I didn’t get in. But maybe thats because I’m a junior and didn’t apply. Still, I am very surprised that I still haven’t received a letter. Do you think that this means I was rejected?</p>

<p>by unweighted GPA, do you mean that you change your grades to a 10 point scale? like 90-100=A=4; 80-89=B=3; and so on?</p>
