<p>Take the SAT once more and try the ACT. A 1360 SAT score is a little below average for Emory and college exam scores are pretty huge for top privates like Emory, because it's a way to weed numerous qualifying applicants out. Though, you do have some pretty unique and stand-out extracurriculars, so that definitely makes you well-rounded and Emory likes that too. I say if you get your scores up a bit, then you have an amazing chance and probably a definitely acceptance with Early Action.</p>
