<p>I also play USTA Tennis Tournaments and am ranked in the Eastern Section- some d3 schools have already been recruiting me (for ex. Washington and Lee)</p>

<p>My question for you is if I have a chance at Duke ED or Dartmouth/Williams ED. Also, if I have a chance at Boston College EA, UVa RD, Bucknell RD, Colgate RD, Hamilton RD, Cornell RD, Wash U St. Louis RD, Northwestern RD. Thanks.</p>

<p>oh for those other schools that require SAT 2s :-/</p>

<p>Writing 730
Math IC 700
World 660
American 600</p>

<p>and if you send SAT 2s i think they see SATs also, although I just want them to look at my ACT
M- 670
W- 790
CR- 740</p>

<p>(am going to take either bio, chem, or lit in Oct to try and get another 700+)</p>

<p>oh and for classes
so far i've taken AP World (4), AP American (july), AP English Language
and pretty much the rest honors classes</p>

<p>next year i'm taking AP English Lit, AP Latin, AP Chem, AP Calc AB</p>

<p>bump.. anyone have any idea?</p>

5

<p>for duke, considering they don't look at sats, i think you should apply early, since it looks like you're not going to gain anything by waiting a few months</p>

6

<p>for duke, considering they don't look at sats, i think you should apply early</p>

<p>what do you mean they don't look at SATs?</p>

7

<p>if you have your ACT they don't require SAT 2s</p>

<p>most of the other schoosl i'm looking at do.</p>

8

<p>i wasn't really asking if i should apply early. but more do i have a chance of getting in if i apply early? do i have a chance regular admission?</p>

9

<p>bump...........</p>

10

<p>i'm considering applying early to duke and our stats are very similar (i have slightly higher test scores but you kill me in ECs.) I'd apply ED to duke if i were you, you'd be competitive.</p>

11

<p>bump..........anyone else have an opinion?</p>

12

<p>I'd go for Williams as the most likely D3 to recruit you and a wonderful school.</p>
