<p>Anything is appreciated! Thank you for your time :)</p>
<p>You definitely got accepted. Congrats!</p>
<p>It would be much appreciated if someone gave me a thought on my chances. Thanks!</p>
<p>Your test scores fit in at the 25th percentile range but your gpa and EC’s should bring you up. 70% chance of admission.</p>
<p>Thanks for the input!</p>
<p>Anyone else with some input? Getting anxious :)</p>
<p>soccer god, I think you have a 90% chance, congratulations …</p>
<p>I think you have a good chance. I don’t think it’s definite though because it is Duke (I don’t know how the guy above me gave you a 90% chance).</p>
<p>The SAT is going to hurt though…</p>
<p>okay, I will take it down just a notch, 89% then …</p>
<p>Ya, I know that my SAT will hurt me, but I’m hoping they will take into account my other qualities too. I was thinking a may have a 50% chance of getting in, but I guess it is all up to how the other people applying look. Thank you very much for all of your inputs! It is still a month a way, but I am anxious like the decision is tomorrow!</p>
<p>it will be a long agonizing 30 days waiting for the decision …
why do the colleges do that to us, it is pure torture …</p>
<p>Those standardized test scores just aren’t going to cut it for Duke even if you are a Val/Sal with incredible ECs unless you are an URM or something.</p>
<p>^agreed, your chances at Duke aren’t looking too good.</p>
<p>“State cup soccer captain”</p>
<p>That could just be a fluffy title, but it sounds impressive. Didn’t even try to go the recruited athlete route?</p>
<p>I think you are in if you are a basketball player … soccer, not so much …</p>
<p>State cup is the highest league in Florida under the Olympic Developmental Program, and I am in contact with the Duke soccer coach right now, so I might be going the athlete route. I am just hoping that they aren’t basing their sole decision on my standardized tests…</p>
<p>soccer god, what position do you play, goalkeeper is the hottest position …</p>
<p>I am a versatile player, but prefer any defensive role.</p>
<p>the next hottest position is the sweeper …</p>
