multiple applicants from same high school

<p>I go to a fairly competitive high school and our total class size is 266, but 7 seniors, all top 5% (are school does not give exact rank) are all applying to duke. one is the valedictorian, another has a 4.0 and a 1590, and the other 6 all ahve 1480-1530, i'm in the top 5% and have a 1480, will so many applications from my high school hurt my chances?</p>

<p>I don't think so...but I'm not sure. Last year my high school had 6 seniors matriculate at Duke, so I don't think it's a problem, provided you're a competitive applicant.</p>
