<p>Any one know when we’ll be notified regarding who’s a finalist?</p>
<p>D’s list was “10 ways to Make My Day” – anyone else want to share now that applications have been submitted?</p>
<p>Mine was Top 10 Superheroes 
I tried to make it something that most people wouldn’t talk about!</p>
<p>I did my Top Ten Most Inspirational Women. Good luck guys!</p>
<p>Uh-oh, I think I may have gone the traditional, boring way…I listed the top ten most important things in my life :/</p>
<p>I did Top 10 Meaningful and inspiring songs, do you guys think that’s too traditional???</p>
<p>D did her “YOLO” (You only live once) list.</p>
<p>How many semifinalists were there?</p>
<p>Approximately 2,200, I believe.</p>
<p>I was about to do that ._. But I stuck with my original idea.</p>
<p>I can’t speak for everyone on this forum but, personally, I’m scared as heck to find out the finalist results…best of luck to all the other semifinalists!</p>
<p>Best of luck to you, “MaBeanz” and to everyone else!</p>
<p>did all semifinalists receive the emory scholars email?</p>
<p>Yeah I did.</p>
<p>Yes but it is a tad irrelevant to me considering I live 15 hours away :/</p>
<p>Yes we got email about Emory. </p>
<p>Doctatini there were 2000 semifinalists this year not 2200 as usual.</p>
<p>My D got the email about Emory, but has already been accepted/committed to her first choice college. Sounds like notifications will come out in mid-February.</p>
<p>Is it too late to apply?</p>
<p>Thank you socialdrama… I’m really scared.</p>
<p>Dont be scared. The odds are better than ever.</p>
