Nominated as an Emory Scholar at my school (would this make a difference?)</p>
<p>EDIT: Biology major, pre-med if it makes any difference.</p>
<p>Just apply and see what happens. Chances threads are basically the blind leading the blind. None of us work for admissions, so we don’t know how viable a candidate you are. Make sure to demonstrate interest and you’ll be a viable candidate.</p>
<p>Congratulations on being nominated for Emory Scholar!
I don’t think a nomination makes a direct difference, but it does say your school is standing up for you.</p>
<p>Does your high school offer AP classes? </p>
<p>Have you paticipated in any arts or athletics?</p>
<p>Thank you!
Yes, by the end of my senior year I will have taken AP: Euro, English Lang, English Lit, Biology, Psychology, US History, Enviro Science, Government, Microecon, Physics B and Calc BC.
I participated in athletics my freshman year but unfortunately I had some really bad medical issues that didn’t let me continue 
I’m not even going to bother putting it on my applications. And I took Art 1 to complete my fine art credit for my high school, but I don’t think that counts.</p>
<p>I think you are very competitive. Good luck!</p>
