<p>thats a very valid point emily</p>
<p>im not a legacy either…in fact im an unhooked ORM…they have to admit some of us, right? ;)</p>
<p>haha being a white male like me definitely screws you for college admissions these days</p>
<p>try being an asian male</p>
<p>im not a legacy, which sucks, im just a white jewish boy from Long island (so much for urm- try ORM) and we cant change anything now, its all in the hands of the adcom and now its just waiting to be unvailed to us, i better get in lol, we all better (except for the people who started talking about where else they are applying, if ur a true blue devil, nothing else matters…) ;)</p>
<p>I’m hispanic 
not sure if that helps much though</p>
<p>im a white jewish girl from long island…im sitting here in a long sleeved shirt, a sweatshirt, sweatpants and slippers.and im still cold…
i am 99.5 percent sure no one from my school applied ED duke which could be a VERY good thing…but i know of a lottt of kids from other schools on LI are applying ED</p>
<p>LImaxduke: duke really like northeast (and long island in particular) i heard 1/3 kids are accepted ED for our region</p>
<p>@duke2015 yea i heard something like that, they love long island so we’ll have to see, what high school you go to?</p>
<p>south side (nassau county)
what about you?</p>
<p>hills west (suffolk) me and one of my very good friends applied ED but thats it from my school</p>
<p>I feel lame 
I’m only a white girl from South Carolina</p>
<p>lol lame? emily the south is the best… i lived in alabama and virginia before i moved to ohio and its the best down there</p>
<p>Well everyone seems to be from the north or the west
maybe that creates better chances for me but i doubt it</p>
<p>Yeah, the south rules. I used to live in NC, VA, and GA.</p>
<p>I am trying to guess what is orm, urm???
My daughter is white jewish from NYC. I don’t know how much they take from NYC, but there are 2 students applying ED in her school and it is not a lot for that school -huge size.</p>
<p>I can’t wait to hopefully meet everybody next year!!</p>
<p>I actually know some people from hills west and east! (i forget which ones they all go to though lol)</p>
<p>and yes i love the south
hence, my decision to apply to duke, emory, vanderbilt, UVA as my top schools</p>
<p>@stupar1 </p>
<p>urm - under represented minority
orm - over represented minorty</p>
<p>unless i’m mistaken</p>
<p>duke2015, tell mw who you know, IM me tho, dont want ppls names goin thru CC, </p>
<p>max2107</p>
<p>my son is a white male from NC. Four from his school applied. Two RD Trinity. One ED Trinity and my son is ED Pratt. Waiting with the rest of you…</p>
