PLEASE CHANCE ME: I WILL CHANCE BACK</p>

<p>THANKS TO PROSPECTIVEDOC for providing the structure to this outline</p>

<p>Your SAT basically puts you in the bottom 25% of admitted students this year. Everything else looks great. Good chance. </p>

<p>Duke sucks.</p>

<p>^ For RD but he’s asking about ED II. </p>

<p>I think you have a great shot if you apply early decision (an even better one if you get that reading score up.)</p>

<p>Even bottom 25% of admitted students isn’t bad. I was just saying it appears to be the only weak point. You have a great shot for ED II.</p>
