<p>Just got my grades back and I got 2 less Bs than I suspected. Do I have a better chance now? Assume ED because I'm only going to apply to duke if I apply ED. As you can tell from my stats, there's little chance of it happening from ED, so what's the point of applying RD?</p>
<p>Stats:
demographics:
*I am an Asian Indian Male
*From a competitive public high school in Oregon: Beaverton High School, which was also rated the best AP school in Oregon, so yeah, its a smart school. (On top of that, our graduating class is rumored to be the best class of all time, and we were ranked 704 by newsweek putting us in the top 2.5% of all high schools or something like that!! This was before our class started taking APs, so that number will probably raise even more by next year because our class is that good)
