My son has a 4.0 unweighted GPA, 34 ACT excellent SAT II and has taken advantage of AP and honors courses at a premiere private school.(3-4 per year) Sports captain and 4 year varsity athlete in 2 sports, club sports year round, president of 2 EC clubs and editor of school paper. Counselor recommending Duke. Sibling currently at an Ivy. Does sibling status confer advantage at Ivies?
Are academics about equivalent ? Social life better at Duke? and stress less at Duke? Son is conflicted but getting message that Duke is a better bet and would be harder to get into RD
