<p>So, this year the acceptance rate for ED was a record low as it was under 25% and the number of applicants continued increasing. Do yo guys think the Number of applicants will continue to increase next year. What do you predict about the acceptance rate for ED.</p>
<p>I hope not, I am a junior now and I am planning on maybe doing ED at Duke. I hope the number does not increase, but I am sure it will</p>
<p>If it keeps increasing, ED might not even be as worth it as before. Can’t everyone just find a new awesome school?! Like JH or Amherst?! 
(sarcasm)</p>
<p>Do you guys think our class is more competitive?</p>
<p>I feel like every year, the classes get more and more competitive. People go more over the top and beyond, find new ECs and raise the SAT score. I think we should start badmouthing Duke so less people apply.</p>
<p>Canefreak are you applying to Pratt or trinity</p>
<p>the competition is insane…it makes me so nervous for next year, and i hear all of these stories of super competitive people i know getting rejected, it makes me think even with applying ED i would need a miracle! i just hope maybe if a lot of people from my area don’t apply ED too i will have a slightly better chance? but im just guessing/hoping on that…</p>
<p>The cut-throat competition scares me a bit :x</p>
<p>@picklebump Amen. I feel the same way.</p>
<p>Don’t apply ED southernbelle</p>
