You’re probably in. Good scores & ECs, and while the only “decent” essays would worry me a little, you can still turn that around (unless you already submitted your app). Good luck.

@ClarinetDad16 My ED 1 was Duke
@gormar099 Yeah, I’ve been working on my essay a lot more, as that is the reason I didn’t get into Duke I think. I’m gonna perfect it before I send it in to Vandy.
