<p>Hi! I'm new to this forum, after browsing it for months, I finally made an account. I want to know of my chances of getting into Rice or Duke. </p>

Senior this year
My school is The Electronic Classroom of Tomorrow, if you live in Ohio you probably know it's the biggest and most accredited online high school.
UW GPA- 4.0
SAT- 760/770/750
SAT II- Math II(780) Chem(770) USH (760)
This school does not offer AP courses nor does it do ranks because it's an online school.

I had way more time for EC's due to having more time being in an online school
Host at Olive Garden for 2 years
400 Hours Volunteering at the local Library over the years
200 Hours Volunteering at the Animal Shelter
600 Hours Volunteering at Children's Hospital
300+ hours of tutoring 1st-5th graders
ECOT tv Anchor (the school video news)
President of local youth group

Poetry Society Finalist (one of my poems was read on the Local radio) and forwarded to the governor
10 Recommendation letters (if that's even allowed)
Had my essay looked over 3 times by parents, Current English teacher, and Sister who is a graduate of Duke. They all said it was Phenomenal, and very convincing.
Chance me! I hope I can stand out, Thanks :D</p>
