<p>If you liked Duke, why not apply ED? That would be a sure in for you.</p>

<p>I didn't apply ED to Duke because I EDed at Princeton, as encouraged by waaaay too many people. Duke probably would have been a smarter choice, except I haven't visited yet. My family can't afford it. Duke is still way up there on my list though. I haven't heard anything that I don't like.</p>
