Getting Into Duke

<p>Hi! I am currently a junior in high school. I have wanted to go to Duke since I first stepped on the campus in sixth grade. I was wondering if I have chances based on my stats:</p>

<ol>
<li><p>I scored a 29 on my ACT the first time in December. I will be taking it again and hopefully improving!</p></li>
<li><p>My UW GPA is a 4.0. my weighted GPA is a 4.3. I have taken all of the most challenging courses. So far I have taken 3 AP courses and I am taking 5 or 6 my senior year. </p></li>
<li><p>I am a member of Prinicipal's Advisory Committee, I will be in NHS, I have volunteered for many running events and I am beginning to volunteer at a nursing home. I worked all last summer for an electronic recycling company, and this summer I will be working as a hostess at a restaurant or as a caddy at a golf course. </p></li>
<li><p>I ran track/ cross country all three years, will run next year, and I am planning to run in college. I have been captain this year and will be my senior year as well. I am good enough to be on Duke's team, but not outstanding enough to be a "we absolutely need this recruit" </p></li>
</ol>

<p>Any opinions, advice, ect. is welcomed! Thank you! </p>

<p>There’s a chance thread where you should take this question, OP.</p>
