<p>I am currently a Junior but am starting to narrow down the colleges I'll be looking at. Emory is high on my list since I used to live in Atlanta, and I would like to move back there. I also have legacy there (my father (public health) and cousin (law) both went there) and I might consider ED. Any input would be great.</p>

<p>I go to one of the top 50 High Schools as ranked by Newsweek (in subrurban New York)
My school does not report rank, only deciles.
Moved to America from India at age 5.</p>

<p>3.90gpa
2080 SAT, 680 verbal, 710 math. 690 writing, (11essay)
SAT II: Math IC - 750, Bio - 720, plan to take Lit, maybe chem.
Also plan to take ACTs (June 11th)</p>

<p>APs taken
English Language
Physics AB
US History
(rest honors)</p>

<p>Next year:

English Lit

Calc AB
Stats

<p>NHS
Violin, 6th year, did solo/ensemble performances.
Chamber Orchestra

<p>Starting 4 week internship at financial firm in July. (plan to go into business/finance)
I would take some economics courses but my school does not offer them. (except for the mandatory 1/2yr course.)</p>

<p>My counselor says I have a good chance with ED, but I would appreciate any thoughts you have.</p>

<p>-Thanks</p>
