<p>Hello,</p>
<p>I actually had a question first: I heard that applying EDII is less beneficial than applying RD since the pool is small and thus very competitive and selective. Is this true? </p>
<p>Here are my stats, chance me please!</p>
<p>Chance a Blue Devil (Duke ED) hopeful and receive a chance in return!
Hey everybody,</p>
<p>Many of you might have seen a similar post by me before but some of my stats have changed so if I could get some new opinions of my chances at Duke ED that would be awesome! If I missed anything just let me know. Also don't forget to post a link to you thread so I can chance you back! Good luck everyone with the college process-it's so stressful.</p>
