Okay, so I’m overly worried that Duke doesn’t want me.

I turned in my application way before 12/10 and spent a lot of time on my Duke Supplementary. I get a call from an interviewer a little after Jan. 1st and I had to call her back to set up an interview (she said she’d call me after Jan 4th but never did). I also had to find out about the Duke VIP page by myself and register myself.

My friend, on the other hand, applied to Duke last minute after the 12/10 deadline for an interview. She got an interviewer call her a few days after she turned in her app. and got an interview scheduled before me. She also got on email about the Duke VIP page and that’s how she found out.

Can anyone explain what’s going on here?

*Granted, my friend’s dad got contacted to interview me but he declined because he knew me. So Duke probably had to get another interviewer to contact me. So that could explain the late call, but not THAT late.
