<p>51 views and no reply - heck I'll reply. Chances look good - overall, a strong applicant. Your rank can stand some improvement, if ur doing RD, try to bring it up by midyear report. Courseload is very tough, EC's and awards very good, SAT good for Duke. GPA is very very high, dunno why rank is not as high as it should be, if its the competitiveness of the school, the adcoms will understand. I'd say ur in if ur essays/recs are good.</p>
