SATI : 2150 690M 710CR 750W
SATII : 720 Bio 720 Chem
GPA : uw 95 (school does it out of 100) w 99
IB Diploma Candidate
School does not rank
tons of volunteer ec's plus varsity tennis and varsity/jv wrestling but im not a captain in either or anything</p>

<p>You have the same SAT as me. If you want to go, then by all means apply and see what happens.</p>

<p>was there something that made you stand out, like are you a good athlete or musician?</p>

<p>Nope, not really. White Male, from New jersey, not recruited athlete, don't play an instrument well. I had a bunch of activities I was committed to with some leadership roles, and I think my essays were pretty good.</p>

<p>alright thanks i think I'll give it a shot and hope for the best</p>

<p>Dude definetly do it, my friend got in with an 1890.</p>

<p>i went to visit the school this weekend and really liked it. I think I'm going to apply early decision, hopefully that will help my chances slightly. Does anyone have any advice about the application?</p>

<p>If you love Duke and feel that it is the right fit for you, I'd say apply early!
Ur chances are pretty good for ED and RD.. just to let you know.</p>
