I’d say no or deferred to regular. Your act is obviously great. You ECs as well. Your GPA a tad low but your rigor is good.
You’ll get into a wonderful school and it is a possibility you get into Duke. It’s certainly worth a shot if it’s the school you are 100% committed to and you’ve run the NPC and your family can afford or wants to afford it.
Our school’s Naviance shows that three students with 36s got in out of 13. Weighted GPAs of both admitted and denied students were 4.5. No idea if the three admitted ones had hooks, like athletics, legacy, etc. Not a lot ED so that certainly gives some edge.
