Congrats on the hard work. It will be the normal reach for you as everyone else. Perhaps your geographic diversity and a killer app would win the day. But my experience is that my expectation would be that you more likely to be one of the 90 students declined out of a 100 applications than accepted.
I’m going to be pretty honest here. You GPA and ACT are very good, but for a school like Duke not quite enough. If you apply you will still have a chance, as does everyone, but you will HAVE to make sure your essays are spectacular. Honestly though, don’t put too much pressure. You’ve done a lot of hard work and these schools are incredibly difficult for everyone who applies.
