Relax. Nobody is saying Duke isn't a good school. In fact he seemed to be saying the opposite. That while Duke isn't HBS , it is a program from which one can still accomplish their goals. And Faqua accepts about 25-30% of their applicants, so take heart. Your task isn't impossible. If 30% of the people are going to get in, who is to say you won't be one of them.

ksh: May I ask which consultancy told you that an Ivy undergrad education, 700 GMAT and unique work experience + volunteering in Africa equates to a 5% chance at HBS? Don't need to disclose individual names, just the Company. Seems like a bit of a lowball? I hope they weren't discouraging you from applying because they want to pump up their admission stats...
