Essay vs Score (Emory)

<p>Does Emory give more preference to the essays or to the SAT scores ? My SAT scores are low but my academic record has been good.I have been listed as top 5% of the nation .Will that help ?</p>

<p>How low is your SATs? If you’re in the 500s, I’d worry, but if you’re in the 600s and up and have a good resume you have a good chance at admission.</p>
