<p>Hi i am currently a junior and i was wondering what are my chances for applying to duke next year? Also, if duke seems out of reach what sort of schools do you think i should apply to?

<p>Ik i dont have any amazing ecs but really i devote all my time to running, about 49 weeks a year, 6 days a week- and those 10-15 milers can take a lot longer than an hour. Unfortunately i'm not like state champion- i have asthma and am not built for running. Having said that however, i am pretty decent and have worked really hard for what its worth.</p>
