What to Make of Duke Engineering?

<p>The undergraduate engineering program at Duke has a U.S. News peer assessment score of 3.6. However, the program seems fairly hard to get into based on the data available at [Duke</a> University Admissions: Class of 2011 Profile](<a href=“http://www.admissions.duke.edu/jump/applying/who_2011profile.asp]Duke”>http://www.admissions.duke.edu/jump/applying/who_2011profile.asp). This would lead me to believe that, despite the relatively low PA score, Duke engineers are recruited fairly heavily. </p>

<p>What do you guys think?</p>

<p>Duke has great students. Biomed seems to be their strength.</p>
