<p>^^^ You may have a chance for Emory College…try for it…that is if you break a 2100 and get a 1400 overall…</p>

3

<p>Colleges, are you going to A&M or Emory?</p>

4

<p>^^^ idk, If I get enough aid at Emory, I will go there, enough as in 25,000 to 20,000 in aid not loans…If its more than that, I might go to A&M because it is closer…I didn’t really like Atlanta…</p>

<p>i appreciate the advice. but im looking for chances at oxford first… so uhm… i wuold appreciate comments on that first.</p>

6

<p>Your set for oxford, thats why I suggest applying to Emory’s Main campus…lol…</p>

7

<p>I say that you’re definitely in.</p>

8

<p>thanks but isnt the average GPA at emory around a 94-95?</p>

9

<p>The average GPA was 3.84 this year for incoming freshmen.</p>

<p>I don’t know what that is on the 100 scale.</p>

10

<p>Since you’re applying to Oxford, the GPA is probably much lower.</p>

11

<p>Oh, for my latest post, that GPA was for Emory Emory, not Oxford Emory.</p>

12

<p>Since Emory really likes demonstrated interest, visit Oxford if you can. It will also enable you to write a better ‘Why Oxford?’ essay.</p>
