[quote=Anonymous]Duke is a good school, no doubt, and someone can get an excellent education and be supported after with a close alumni network. That being said, it appeals to a certain kind of student and the only way to know is to visit. It is very insular and a pressure cooker, among others. Durham isn’t everyone’s cup of tea. Sure the basketball team is good, but don’t count on being able to just waltz in with your student ID on game day to get in as there is a very elaborate and complicated system re student ticket distribution (more than just the UNC game require camping out). The kids who like going to Duke usually say they just knew or felt like they were home when they visited. But you can say that about most schools when asked by those that attend. So I wouldn’t say Duke has an edge or anything more special than other schools. [/quote]
