[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Duke has been a top 10 school for 40-50 years. [/quote] Duke 30 years ago was definitely not top 10. It was accepting around 25% of kids when I was applying[/quote] +1 My sister and I both got into Duke in the 90s. We were pretty typical, just-above-average NoVa public school kids. [/quote] Every top school had much higher admission rates in the 1990s. Below are 1995 acceptance rates: Stanford: 17.5% Harvard: 11.8% UPenn: 33% Duke: 21% Princeton: 16% Chicago: 71% Yale: 20% MIT: 31% Brown: 20% CalTech: 22.5% Based on the above, Duke was actually pretty darn selective in 1995.
