<p>Yeah man. I don't mind at all. :)</p>

<p>Lookin good. That cancer research stuff is pretty unique. I think your senior year courses are great too. Lots of APs + senior project??? That is a plus. Test scores should be w/in if not above Duke's range. Get some good reccs + good essay + good interview = you should be in. Good luck mate.</p>
