<p>Duke class of 2016 here- You are competitive, but there have been many applicants with better GPAs, standardized scores, etc. who have been rejected by Duke. If possible, you should try retaking both the SAT I and II, as they are comparatively easy to improve. Last year’s ED thread can probably give you a good idea of the average accepted and rejected Duke applicant: <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/duke-university/1250902-official-duke-2016-ed-results-thread-2.html?highlight=duke+ed[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/duke-university/1250902-official-duke-2016-ed-results-thread-2.html?highlight=duke+ed&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>I do think that your ECs are good, but they could use more depth!</p>
