How to improve my Chances for Duke

<p>

</p>

<p>Actually it’s 12.6% and it’s only going to go down.</p>

<p>OP: If you apply ED I’d say low reach. RD = reach.</p>

<p>Assuming your school is as respected as you say it may be that you are less subject to grade inflation then some other schools, and colleges likely know this if your school sends people to Ivies/Top 25’s regularly. </p>

<p>As for the ACT scores, people seem to over obsess on that. You are near the 75th% I think you are fine. 33->34 is not going to make or break your ap. (IMHO)</p>

<p>I would focus on getting straight A’s senior year, some strong summer EC’s. Leadership positions is clubs, and GREAT Essays.</p>

<p>All in all I think your chances are excellent at Duke. Good luck!</p>
