<p>you are definitely in for unc and nc.state</p>

<p>Because you are in state I think you have a solid shot at UNC and NC state. I think Duke is a reach for you because your test scores are on their lower end and have somewhat average ECs for their applicants. Same goes for Stanford. However, if you essays and letters of rec are truly impressive, then you have a decent shot of getting in. But Stanford and Duke are still both reaches. Good luck! I hope you get in to all of them!</p>

<p>Can you chance me back? I’m applying to Duke as well. <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1561842-chance-me-duke-ed-will-chance-back-within-24-hours.html#post16449634[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1561842-chance-me-duke-ed-will-chance-back-within-24-hours.html#post16449634&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
