<p>I have comparable stats, and a friend who attends Emory has told me that I have a pretty good shot of getting into the university. You'll make a strong case too, though I'm not sure about the scholarship.</p>

<p>nblazer201,</p>

<p>Based on the information you provided, you have a solid chance for admission, as your GPA and test scores are commendable. However, with increasing competitiveness manifested in recent years, even your unweighted GPA of 3.84 is just above the average of 3.82 for the most recent admitted class of freshmen at Emory (this year's Class of 2012). As well, your ACT score of 32 is within the middle 50% of ACT scores for this year's freshman class (30-33).</p>

<p>In all candor, due to the strong competition for merit scholarships (either the Emory Scholars Program or Goizueta Scholars), your numbers don't stand out, and I'd give you much lesser odds there.</p>

<p>Best of luck.</p>
