Checking in! The combination of scholly prospects and lower COL make Duke an attractive option.

FYI I think the LSAT median in OP is messed up:

LSAT Score 166/159/170

Unless I'm wrong. I could be wrong. Those statistics courses are pulling down my GPA, after all...

Same! Not sure how I feel about Durham, but I have a friend doing a PhD at Duke now so I may drop by and visit.

Honestly, if you're not feeling Durham, Raleigh is 20 minutes away and there's fun stuff in between. So "not sure how I feel about Durham" would be a crap excuse to give Duke a cold shoulder. Also, there is lots to do in Durham...Much better than Chapel Hill at least. Not saying your decision would solely be based on this factor, but don't forget to take this other stuff into consideration. GL all!

Also, tagging a first page spot ITT for later usage.

Checking in, really hoping for PT.

Hey, entering 1L here - happy to answer questions about the application process or first impressions about the school and the town. Classes don't start until the 18th, so I can't speak to the 1L experience at all, but I'm happy to help however I can.

Checking in! Used to live around Duke.
