<p>3.72 GPA is very nice.</p>

<p>9 APs is also very nice. 4 Years of Foreign Language is also a nice +. </p>

<p>When you know your class rank, post it. Its important to be within the Top 10%.</p>

<p>What is your SAT equivalent for your ACT score? I am not versed well in the ACT. </p>

<p>Are you planning on applying ED or RD?</p>

<p>I plan on doing early decision II, I think my SAT score equivalent is around 1350/1600 and by ACT score is definately in the median range given on the Emory website. If I'm not in the top 10% i'm really close to it, and I go to a very competitive high school that's well known by Emory admissions counselors.</p>

<p>A ~1350 SAT is nice. Put together a nice application and you have yourself a shot. Good luck.</p>
