<p>How bad were your AP scores (besides the 3 you passed?). It doesn’t really make a huge difference, but if you take a ton of APs and don’t do well in them it could hurt you really badly. It would only either show A) you’re a bad test taker or B) accentuate the lack of rigor in your high school. I would definitely go against reporting that SAT score (you know that though, good) and report the ACT.</p>

<p>Your visiting looks great. Emory tracks interest and applying ED would only add to the pile that you have.</p>

<p>Finally, your leadership looks slightly weak. Hopefully you can get that one position…but the President of Ping Pong Club doesn’t do much I’d say. If you get that one Executive thing, you’ll be good.</p>

<p>From there, I’d say maybe take a few SAT IIs in things that you’re good at. Is there anything that stands out? That would make your application look much better.</p>

<p>Well i asked one of their admission counselor, and he said that Emory does not care at all about SAT II’s. If you have them great, if not no biggie. As far as standing out goes, I have yet to cure AIDS but I am working on it(just kidding). I figured being valedictorian would look pretty good to an admissions officer of a student applying ED, so as far as hooks go unfortunately that would be it.</p>
