I'll be applying re and my teacher reds are friggin stellar! What are my chances?</p>
<p>Since your situation is unique (with your freshman year), I’m not sure how accurately anyone can chance you. I’d recommend that you make sure your counselor addresses what happened in your freshman year in his or her recommendation.</p>
<p>If you ignore freshman year, your GPA and SAT are within Emory’s range, but that doesn’t mean anything concrete. Make sure you demonstrate interest… and if you are really interested in Emory, I’d recommend that you consider applying to Emory’s Oxford College.</p>
<p>Sounds competitive to me. On the app, I’d use the open space at the end to give Admissions an understanding of your situation.</p>
