<p>I'm thinking of applying ED to Duke this fall.</p>
<p>So provided that I have a great 2300+ Reasoning SAT score on my second sitting. And the essays are good+recommandations and what-not.</p>
<p>Would my Subject SAT scores, 760 MathL2 & 710 BioM, eleminate my chances?
By the way I'm international, and I need lots of financial aid.</p>
<p>No. Both your SAT II scores are fine. I got in with scores similar to those.</p>
<p>2300 puts you in great shape, especially with 700+ on other scores</p>
<p>....but it's "recommendation"!!!!</p>
<p>You should be fine.. I know of people who got in with your SAT II scores, good luck!
However, I would recommend that if you can find an SAT II you feel confident that you can score 750+ on.. that you should take it.</p>
<p>you won't get lots of financial aid mostly anywhere as an international student</p>
<p>I had a 2150, and 800, 680, 600 SAT II's and got in. you're fine.</p>
<p>sorry, but you cannot apply ED if you are an international seeking finaid. </p>
<p>from Duke's webiste:
"Foreign nationals seeking need-based aid must apply under the Regular Decision plan."</p>
<p>(btw: there are few US colleges that are need-blind to internationals and provide full aid to all accepted. Two of those colleges are P'ton and Harvard.)</p>
<p>I don't have a chance there.</p>
