I can wiggle my ears???</p>
<p>Nothing special, I know.</p>
<p>Btw, what's harder to get into, COlumbia SEAS or Pratt (both ED), because those are the two I'm deciding between for ED.</p>
<p>I think you have a very good chance at Pratt. Ill do a little Pros and Cons list for you…</p>
<p>Pros: 2390 SAT, All three SAT II’s. You have good extracurriculars, especially that internship. All 5’s on APs. In short, all of your test scores. </p>
<p>Cons (minor cons, I cant find any big ones): You are an asian male, applying for an engineering school. It may just be the way you worded the EC’s, but it seems like you have more participation than leadership/ accomplishments. Try to emphasize any accomplishments / positions on your application. </p>
<p>While Im no one to say a 3.89 GPA is bad in any way, thousands of people applying to Duke have a 4.0. However, your test scores are so incredibly high that I doubt that your GPA will hurt you, like I said its in no way bad (but perfect is better ). </p>
<p>What is your class rank? Also, any hooks, legacys, etc?</p>
<p>Our school got rid of class rank years ago as the administrators deemed the students too competitive with it (lol). No legacies or hooks I suppose.</p>
<p>Lol on the class rank. Whats wrong with a little competition? ;)</p>
<p>I still think you are a very strong applicant. Pratt is much more test scores oriented than Trinity, who looks from a more wholistic point of view. You definitely knock it out of the park on those, so you have quite a good chance. Its unfortunate your an asian male applying to engineering though (Im a white male so I feel your pain almost everywhere I apply). Overall, since you applying ED I would say you have a quite good chance of getting in, but nothing is guaranteed at Duke these days :(</p>
