<p>So i know my SAT scores are definitely on the low side for Duke…but im hoping that my essays and stuff will make up for them. I have already started working on my essays and I had one of my favorite teachers read and critique it. He liked it a lot and thought it embodied me well.
Would applying ED be advantageous for me?</p>
