Would love a reader for Why Duke essay

Hey,



I have written by "Why do you want to go to Duke?" short essay, and was hoping somebody would be willing to read it over? I think it is different than the normal response, but I would love to get some feedback on the content as well as make sure there are no blatant punctuation errors.

It is only 2 paragraphs, and I could pm it to you if anybody would be so kind, especially someone already in college, or graduated?



Thanks!

I'll critique it. I'm not in college, but I'm not applying to Duke, and I'm pretty good at English.
