My older sybling attended Harvard and was accepted at Dartmouth</p>

<p>Since I have them handy, here are stats for Brown which is easier to get into than Harvard, about the same as Dartmouth and a bit harder than Duke and Cornell:</p>

<p>The legacy factor might help you at Harvard, but the stats are in the 25% percentile range generally for all the schools except Cornell. The ECs are not too stellar either. I would offer that if your interview goes well, you might still have a chance. Forget Duke, unless you have a marvelous jump shot, or your folks have LOTS of dough.</p>

<p>SAT scores are low though that’s a good ACT. Not very many extracurriculars, though a 4.0 unweighted GPA is great.</p>

<p>The ivies a reach for everyone. Might as well just wait and see. I’d say you have a good shot at Duke though.</p>
