<p>hey can u guys send a pm to me too? I'll be a Dukie next year, and I just want to know how hard it is. Oh yeah, can you tell me what AP classes you took and what grades u got in those classes and your class rank and then your Duke GPA. Thanks!</p>

<p>me, too...I'm in the same boat as twinkletoes23. You don't have to list the APs for me, I'm just interested in your GPA and major/school. Thanks a bunch!</p>

<p>Since you guys don't know who I am and lots of people are curious, I'll just post it here: (if you guys have any questions, just PM me)</p>

<p>I was expecting a 3.5 and was very lucky and ended up with a 4.0.</p>

<p>Im in Pratt:
schedule:
math 103
chem 23
econ 55
Egr 53 </p>

<p>I really did not expect a 4.0... I partied on Wed, Fri, and Saturday nights and while I worked pretty hard the rest of the time, I never expected all As. My exams carried me, and brought both chem and math to an A.</p>

<p>Honestly, I thought EGR 53 was really easy (nice job Dr. G), econ was decent, and I felt chem and math were pretty difficult (partly due to curve and competition with premeds). </p>

<p>I was prepared for and satisfied with a 3.5 and didnt think anything of it. There is no grade inflation at Duke as far as I can tell and courses (esp at the intro level) are weed out courses. </p>

<p>I hope this helps. First semester was a ton of fun, and I wouldnt place grades over having fun, although your parents wont agree.</p>

<p>Wow we had the same classes except for econ this semester. I took Chinese 170 instead.</p>
