<p>What are my chances of getting into Duke, Vanderbilt, or Notre Dame?</p>
<p>I am a white female from Upstate New York.

<p>Spanish 5 Honors - Not AP but highest my school offers, receive college credit through NY college system (SUNY).</p>
<p>I also participate in lots of community service (250+ hours per year), founded a Special Olympics team in my area, swam synchronized swimming for 8 years. I am a synchronized swimming coach and choreographer (both volunteer). I am also a lifeguard and swim instructor (paid - 12 hours a week). I belong to: Key Club, Mathletes, Fan Club, Women's Empowerment, Spanish Club, and the Committee on Retention and Enrollment.</p>
<p>I am applying Early Decision to Duke (yes this is a HUGE long shot), and I'm really hoping to get into Notre Dame or Vanderbilt.</p>
<p>Please note that I'm not a legacy to Duke or Notre Dame, but my aunt attended Vanderbilt.</p>
<p>Please be real with me! I don't want any sugar coated answers, please.</p>
I’m also looking at Duke and Vandy! For Duke, your CR might hold you back, as well as your SAT IIs. AP scores are not bad, but not amazingly awesome. I think you have great, dedicated ECs that show lots of passion. Grades are awesome, just like they need to be for these schools! Vandy isn’t much easier than Duke, especially for RD. What are you wanting to study? I say decent chance for Duke, above average for Vandy, and idk enough about Notre Dame, sorry! If you get your scores up, you’ll be even more competitive!</p>
