<p>For the record Duke early decision is about on par with Brown in terms of hardness for acceptance (not in terms of numbers I think Duke is low-30 something early vs Brown is high-20 early), whereas Cornell is easier then them both (high-30 early). </p>
<p>But check this website out for information about the people these schools are looking for, for Duke and Cornell and Brown. It does help in general and should give you a feel for the essays, regardless of the school you are applying to.</p>

<p>For the record, they are all great schools. Between all three, Duke (ik I threw that in there sry I LOVE MY SCHOOL), between Cornell and Brown for prestige, Brown, but for easy acceptance Cornell.</p>
<p>GOOD LUCK!!!</p>
