<p>Might do interview.</p>

<p>Any input is appreciated, thanks!</p>

<p>Well, luckily, your math is actually just on the low end of average for Duke. It’s still a good thing you’re retaking it though. Good luck.</p>

<p>Your rank and your GPA, apparently, aren’t as important as your essay, recommendations, ECs, tests, and the rigor of your classes. You seem to have a good enough chance for Duke ED, but don’t count on it.</p>

<p>Hmm, ok. Thanks for the input! Yeah, trying not to get my hopes <em>too</em> high haha.</p>

<p>Also, do you think I should just send my ACT score (34) if I dont get my math up to at least 720+? Not sure what to do there.</p>
