<p>You have a definite shot, especially since you’re Hispanic. Your EC’s are really great and show passion towards your intended major (and science in general). </p>

<p>Everything looks good, just write your essays well. I’ll be surprised if you don’t get in!</p>

4

<p>It might help to raise your verbal score above 750 if you have time, but I think you’re very likely to get in. And show interest by ordering the DVD and visiting if you can.</p>

<p>Doryphorus, does Emory still do the DVD thing? If so can you send me a link as to where I can get it</p>
