<p>I was recently rejected from Stanford EA, and I was wondering about my chances of getting into Emory. Please be honest. If I don't have a chance, plz tell me.</p>

<p>I have a 4.00 GPA unweighted and 4.45 weighted.
I'm number 3 in my class of about 500.
SAT Scores 800 Math, 760 Reading, 750 Writing.
SATII Scores 800 Math II, 800 Chem, 790 Bio.
ACT: 36 Math, 36 Science, 33 Writing w/ 7 on the essay, 35 Reading (35 composite)</p>

<p>My curriculum is pretty hard I guess.

(I got National AP Scholar and Siemen's Award for AP)</p>

<p>EC's
I run Track and Cross Country, but I didn't win any awards.
I'm president of National Honor Society.
I have over 500 hours of community service total.
I'm in clubs like mathlete and quizbowl.
I play A LOT of Ultimate Frisbee. I'm co-captain of the school's ultimate club.</p>

<p>My essays are probably mediocre (i m not a very good writer, enough to get a 5 on the English AP exam, but thats about it) and my Extra Curriculars aren't at all amazing.
btw, I m asian, so that counts against me right???</p>

<p>i think you have a great chance as your scores surpass those of average applicants at Emory. I was wondering, how did you get the Siemens Award for AP now, aren't those announced in February?</p>

<p>You definitely have a chance, but you better get on your demonstrated interest ASAP; if this is the first time Emory has been on your radar.....move it....</p>

<p>Also, you don't list your demographics (geographic/ethnic) but that will definitely play a part.....</p>

<p>Good Luck!</p>

<p>the form i received from AP said its announced in the middle of December.</p>

<p>I honestly don't know how you wouldn't get in...I'm not sure about the negativity of the other people that posted. You're in- just write a decent why emory essay.</p>

<p>Seems like you got an awesome chance with that GPA and SAT
THe ECs are pretty good (Simiens and NHS) but if you're essay is decent then you should definitely be in.</p>
