I just applied early decision to Duke university. I am a Hispanic male looking to enter neuroscience. I am in the International Baccaleureate program and am a National Hispanic Scholar. My UW GPA is 3.72 and my weighted is 4.51. My ACT score is 34 and I didn’t submit my SAT. I got a 800 on my Math II and a 790 on Physics. My academic honors that I listed were national Hispanic scholar, IB diploma candidate, California scholarship federation life member, national honor society, and AP scholar with distinction. I have 8 main EC: higher ground which is a counseling program for at risk youth, youth ministry leadership, baseball(only two years), Model United Nations where I earned a certificate of commendation, national league of young men where I earned the helmsman award for best overall young man as well as 2 presidential gold lebel service awards, exchange student host, tutoring and one more but I can’t think of it right now. I was wondering what my chances for Duke are?
Very good. You look like a solid candidate. Good luck
Sorry never replied! Thank you so much! I’m more nervous today than I have ever been ahah. Just wondering do you know what the acceptance rate this year was? I heard it was 20% which would be a huge drop off compared to last year @sgopal2
Sorry I don’t know. The Duke Chronicle usually publishes an article once the ED decisions are out. Check out the front page of the Chronicle tomorrow or Friday, the detailed stats will be there.
