<p>Honestly? I think you will get into Duke ED if you dont screw up your essays but i still wouldnt be too surprised if you dont get in, it is duke after all.</p>

<p>For the others, in at michigan state and tufts, match at johns hopkins and unc chapel hill and of course mid reach at stanford but you have a decent chance of getting into stanford its definitely not out of your league.</p>

<p>Good luck! I think you will have a very successful admissions cycle next year.</p>

3

<p>Wow thanks so much! I really appreciate it :slight_smile: looks like you’ve got quite the impressive stats yourself</p>

4

<p>bumpity bump</p>

5

<p>Good chances at most of your schools, but Stanford is Stanford.</p>

<p>Good luck.</p>

6

<p>anybody else?</p>

<p>Definitely give you UNC - I live in NC and see a lot of people get in there, not as impressive statistics as yours. Dukes around a 60-70% chance I’d say. I won’t mislead you with the others because I don’t know them very well</p>

8

<p>Duke is a 60-70% chance? Nope. The acceptance rate for Duke was 11% RD and 25% ED. I’m sorry but that’s incredibly low, but you look like a good candidate for the Class of 2017. Even UChicago, JHU, Cornell, Brown, and UPenn are slightly easier to get into than Duke…</p>

9

<p>Yeah, that’s what I thought. Duke will be a stretch but I will try! thanks for chancing!</p>

<p>If you apply ED I think you’ve got a decent shot at Duke. Wyoming is a hook, academically your solid, and you have good ECs. If its your top school apply ED, as it does help, and see how it goes. </p>

<p>As far as the others, Mich St is probably a safety, Tufts you should get into but you’ll have to show interest, Stanford is a complete toss up, JHop- maybe, and UNC is hard to get into out of state.</p>

<p>Hey, good chance at Duke I think, but remember all top schools are reaches, talk about your achievements and ECs more because they’re interesting, chance me back!</p>
