<p>how is your weighted gpa 5.89 if you have uw of 3.44??
How many APs/H did you take!? </p>
<p>(just curious)</p>
<p>i think the weighted is out of 8
i took 2 honors and some classes weighed honors level
im taking 3 a.p. and 1 more honors class next year</p>
<p>unweighted will hurt you (average is about 3.87 at emory), but hopefully you can show enough interest to get in. You have a pretty low chance even if you apply ED, but show some straight As on your midyear and you might have a chance. Impressive ECs though</p>
<p>good luck</p>
<p>btw, I was taken off the waitlist with 3.6 UW and 4.7 W (out of 5)</p>
<p>If you want people to help you with chances, you should always post your unweighted GPA on a 4 point scale and your unweighted GPA on a 5 point scale. Only then can people give you a good estimate of your chances.</p>
