<p>oh yes and i've showed substantial interest...
ordered video visit, talked to some of their reps & kept in touch w/ counselors & handlers....</p>
<p>applied ED 1
anyone else?</p>
<p>hey there. you have a great chance for early decision. Is that gpa weighted or uw? Your test scores are a little lower than average but you have good ec's and if your essays and letters were good, you should be a strong applicant. </p>
<p>I also applied ED to Emory. Come join the Emory ED Class of 2013 thread.</p>
<p>Good luck!</p>
<p>thanks so much for the feedback!
3.9 weighted
3.85 unweighted</p>
<p>i'm so intimidated...everyone in this forum has crazy ec's and scores.</p>
<p>i'd appreciate more input : )</p>
<p>that's a great unweighted gpa, but a not so great weighted one. Why is the difference between uw and weighted that little when you have taken 9 AP courses? An unweighted gpa of 3.85 is very strong, but if your weighted was 4.0 or above, you would have had good chances. Even now, you have a chance, but it's tough to call because of your SATs and w gpa, but I do have to say your ec's are strong.</p>
<p>my school does calculates gpa weird there's no way to get over a 4.0...they do an internal curve for ap classes....they build in five points someway...idk...weird. i've only gotten a B in AP Chem.... because that class sucks.</p>
