<p>Can anyone (except for HS class of 2009) just give my personal statement a quick read and just a brief criticism. In-depth analysis is not needed. Duke is my overwhelming #1 (applying ED) and would like to see how my main essay stacks up against other Duke hopefuls. I realize that since this isnt my "why duke" essay, this may not be the appropriate forum, but i did ask for help in the essay area on CC, and received nothing more than "interesting, good job" in replies. Was not a lot of help, other than being a little uplifting. This will be the only school forum that I request for help on. Thanks to anyone willing to help and if this doesnt belong on the Duke forum, i will not bump it and let it die if i get no replies. Thanks again!</p>
<p>sure send it over through pm or email <a href="mailto:nnm@duke.edu">nnm@duke.edu</a></p>
