<p>Hi, I'm planning on applying to Duke ED as an incoming freshmen, and I was wondering what my chances are. I know it is a reach for me but thought I'd give it a try.</p>
<p>Female
4.262 W GPA, not sure about my unweighted but between 3.7-3.85
All IB courses, got a 6 on the bio SL test I've taken so far
2220 SAT (790 W, 770 CR, 660 M (yikes, I know))
32 ACT (not sure if I should even submit this)
SAT II: haven't completed yet but expected high scores on French, hopefully OK in math 2 to make up for my SAT I math
Recs: expecting very good from my counselor and french teacher, hopefully an okay one from my other teacher
EC:
-volunteer for animal rescue for past 4-5 years (foster parent of animals)
-4 years indoor and outdoor varsity track (district champs all four years)
-3 seasons cross country (captain my senior year)
-officer of french honor society (been a member 2 years)
-officer of another club for missing veterans (been a member 3 years)
-took part in an immersion russian program the past two summers
-taking part in a project at my school to build a campus greenhouse
-NHS (2 years)
-have worked as a youth track coach for the past four years
-work at a company (10+ hours a week)
-volunteer in taking care of the school garden
Essay: hopefully good common app essay, it's a quirky, humorous one on my obsession with animals and how that's shaped who I am
My supplement will be on how I lived abroad for a few years and attended a local french-speaking school and became fluent
My 'why duke?' Essay will focus on my interest in environmental science and how the opportunities at duke will help me pursue that</p>
<p>What do you guys think? Am I missing any information?</p>
