For Wake Forest, you should not submit your ACT scores and apply test optional. Your strong gpa, rank and rigorous school give you a legitimate shot there. Duke does reject a whole lot of legacies, but by all means apply ED and see what happens. Curious about your ACT score - if composite is a 28 but non-Stem in 35 what did you get in math/science? Must be fairly low. If so, so you have some strong math classes to make up for that?
