Good luck to you all!

Good luck RDers!! Hope to see you at Duke next fall!

I'm sure any of the ED applicants would be more than willing to be a resource.

I'm applying to trinity for bio! duke is my favorite school and I have visited a lot because several relatives have gone there but I didn't apply ED because I wanted to see if I could get merit scholarships anywhere. if I got the Robertson I would 100% go to duke. and even if not, there's a strong chance id go anyway if I got in! hopefully it'll work out

I applied for Stanford EA and was rejected, but I really love Duke and I realize now that it is a better fit for me. I just hope I get in! I want to major in economics btw...

I got deferred from Brown ED, but honestly, I have always loved Duke so either way I hope I get in! I'm a Chem major!

It sounds like Duke is everyone's favorite (for good reason ), but where else have you all applied?

@lexiam, I'm guessing you applied CAS at Penn? I've realized that I'm kind of screwed there because I applied to Wharton... Would you go to Duke over Penn or vice versa? Also, which campuses have you visited?

Does anyone know how important the interviews are for the Duke admission decision because I think mine went really well?

btw accepted at Georgetown, Notre Dame, and BC honors program but love Duke the most!

I haven't been contacted for an interview yet, so I'm nervous about that... But I've heard that interviews are not weighted much, but become the determining factor if you are on "the edge." Congratulations btw, those schools are really awesome!
