<p>Lol this is a hilarious thread.
In the simplest words: you won’t know unless you try right?
Another thing, where you are from makes little different, what ethnicity, also makes little difference, if you didn’t know Asians will compete anywhere at top schools, just because Duke to the outside world has a stereotype for Caucasians doesn’t mean it is any easier for Asians to get in. Being Asian I would like to say that Asians aren’t always the smartest people in the world, there are simply more fortune 500 company CEO that are not Asian than Asian. =) (don’t get me started on the bad CEO and the jokes about Harvard MBAs and their bankrupt companies 
)</p>
