[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I lived in the South and there were special high schools that were breeding students for Duke. I think they are very particular about where they pull from and without athletic commitments, it’s very competitive to nab a spot OOS. Congrats to your child in all his acceptances and let him know that he did everything right but sometimes there’s just not enough spots. [/quote] I don't think the high school argument makes as much sense here because it's ED. Duke just has to say yes and OP's son will enroll, so the power is in Duke's hands. At that point they're just trying to see if the kid is a good fit and will do well at Duke or make a contribution to the incoming class[/quote]
