<p>Although we congressional pages LOVE to make fun of “close-up” kids roaming the halls of the capitol and sitting in the gallery with no access, I will chance you anyway.</p>

<p>If you apply ED to Duke you have a good chance! UNC is HARD out of state, but your diversity will help you! The top ivies are probably hard with your lack of any super exciting ECs… sorry.</p>

<p>chance back!</p>
