<p>You didn’t state your SAT I or II scores, which are important. </p>

<p>However, the rest of your application looks great, and if your scores are 700+ and 2100+, you should have a great shot.</p>

4

<p>what the guy above said. 2100+ and 700+ and you should be a high match for duke ed</p>

5

<p>oh, well duke doesnt ask for those, they take only the ACT?</p>

<p>But thank you for the chance!</p>

6

<p>Well your “hook” alone should get you a long way + you have great accedemics so I would say you are 95% chance you are in.</p>

<p>Everything up there is great, but I don’t know how someone can give you an honest opinion without an SAT I score or ACT score (at least). </p>

<p>That information + 22 ACT, and you’re not in. That information + 34 ACT and you’re easily in. See what I mean?</p>

<p>I posted I have a 32 on the ACT?</p>

<p>First line, no less. You’re in good shape for Duke.</p>
