Thanks again to anyone who took the time to chance me!

5 months ago you had just finished 9th grade and were going in to 10th. Now you are a senior and have already applied. And your SAT score has dropped.

If what you have presented is actually achieved then your post comes across as- at best- humble-bragging: it is obvious that a person with those credentials has “a chance”.

@collegemom3717 - What I meant was would I have a chance at a school like Duke, and yes, I’m a senior who has applied. Those other posts were for my friends.

Didn’t Duke decisions already come out. Please correct me if I am wrong.

They’re coming out at around this time! It shouldn’t be too long till I get the decision - just a matter of days

Duke ED decisions are already out. They’ve been out for over a week. What rock have you been hiding under?

Sorry, I had no idea they’ve been out, I’ve been out of the country for winter vacation!

Thats what I thought, they came out December 15th.

UNC and NC State should be an accept. Duke will be a low reach, due to your unweighted GPA. However, still a good shot at acceptance. Good luck!
