<p>Just want some feedback, positive and/or negative. Thanks.</p>
<p>not bad... your SAT is a good score but it would definately help your chances to get it a little bit higher... also try to get a few leadership roles in some of the things you are already involved in for next year (ex: editor of the schoo newspaper)</p>
<p>Your grades are really good. It would be NICE if you could get up to top 5%... but I think 7% is very impressive anyway considering your class is so big.</p>
<p>Good luck!</p>

<p>You definitely have a solid shot - not everyone here had a perfect GPA in high school. GPA is just one of the six components Duke uses to evaluate your applications (Not in any order: 1.GPA 2. Course load 3. Test scores 4. Essay 5. Interview 6. Extra-curriculars, talents, etc. - I talked a student who works in admissions and apparently 2 readers go through you application and rate you 1-5 in each of these areas. Then the two scores are tabulated to a certain number out of 60. He said usually the scholarship recipients score in the very high 50s range.</p>
<p>CC24 your transcript is exactly like mine and i got in. i got in w/ rank of 49/550 but with SAT of 2330, SAT II Math 1 730 US History 770 and Literature 790. i think that u have a good chance.</p>
<p>blue devil u got a shot but try to get the verbal score up and overall score of 2300+ that will improve chances a lot</p>
