[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]GPrep and Duke...[b]although not an Ivy its close enough[/b]. Counselor was awesome and was extremely helpful. My son did have high grades (12 APs) and high SAT (2250) but he had a ton of extras. I think what was the selling point for him was that he really let them know he wants to be a surgeon and he interned in a Hospital (nuero) all last summer. Every essay or interview (he interviewed twice) he really focused in on long term goals. He did play varsity sports and had a ton of volunteer work as well. Seems like most of the upper end schools are looking for well rounded kids. [/quote] Ivy League is pretty well defined, no matter how good Duke is as a school, it is in the ACC and not the Ivy League.[/quote]
