<p>so I have my Duke Interview in 3 hours and Im very nervous. Im majoring in Economics and I want to either do dance or cheer.
I know that shes gonna ask me Why Duke? ,but the problem is, I really dont have a legit reason that will convince my interviewer that I really want to go there. What are great about Duke that I can corporate in my answer?</p>
<p>You should know that better than we would.</p>
<p>Ask yourself–Why Duke?
Duke is a prestigious school but it’s not the only one. So what made Duke stand out? Did you like a specific aspect/tradition of Duke? Athletics? Academics? Campus?</p>
<p>Also, you probably in your app answer that question, so, repeat it, I guess!
I can’t answer for you that question, only you can.</p>
<p>Duke has great school spirit and tradition, great sports, (important for one who is interested in cheer) as well as stellar academics. And it’s a beautiful campus, nice weather-- it seems like a great place to spend four years!</p>
<p>thanks! My Duke interviewer was like the sweetest person ever and I had a great time!</p>
<p>Duke has become the institution of choice for the Middle Eastern wealthy. Forget about scholarships and government aid. The Middle Eastern students have it all because they hide their wealth in foreign accounts.</p>
<p>Foget Duke. It is no longer a U.S. institution.</p>
<p>^^^^^</p>
<p>Wow. Xenophobia, anyone? And has this poster been to other elite colleges?</p>
<p>ao1313, it’s great that you enjoyed your interview! (remember to send a thank you if you haven’t already done so)</p>
