Your application will get serious consideration. Whether you make the final cut is anyone’s guess given the selectivity. But I think applying ED makes a lot of sense for you, and your odds are on the right side of 50/50. Good luck!

You definitely have the numeric statistics just like many other qualified applicants. It’s going to really come down to your EC’s and application essays explaining your passion/story. ED is the way to go if Duke is your first-choice. There is a clear advantage to applying ED than RD at Duke. Good luck!
