<p>If you have a SAT score of 2000+ and a GPA consisting of mainly As, you will get in so stop making chance threads if you meet the standards above</p>

<p>Love,</p>

<p>LOL. Are you sure? You never know…lol.</p>

<p>That would be a less than average SAT score at Emory. Definitely not a certain admit. To be fairly certain of being admitted at any top 20 Univ. a student needs to be in the top quartile, even with “a GPA consisting of mianly A’s.” At a half dozen or more schools even that won’t provide certaintly.</p>

<p>What about my chances of being at least a semi-finalist for the Scholar’s Program?</p>

M: 670
W: 710 (12 on essay)</p>

<p>SAT II:</p>

<p>May: US Hist: 760
Lit: 760
Math IC: 670</p>

<p>AP:</p>

<p>CALC AB - 5
ENG. Lang/Comp - 5
US Hist - 5</p>

<p>GPA:</p>

<p>All As (one B for Chem last year)
Weighted: 5.60
Unweighted: 3.9818
Top two percent in a class of 500 students.</p>

<p>I also have pretty good ecs. </p>

<p>Do you think I have a shot for semi-finalist?</p>

<p>Thanks for the chances.</p>

<p>Your SAT score is frankly too low for being a scholar</p>

6

<p>Okay.</p>

<p>How about for regular admission? You think I could get in then?</p>

7

<p>I think you can get in…but EC’s?</p>

<p>emorybound, wat do u think i should do </p>

<p>Stats:
<a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/emory-university/414553-should-i-apply-edii.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/emory-university/414553-should-i-apply-edii.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>on the decision threads ive seen ppl with SAT scores that are 100 pts. higher than mine get rejected RD, i’m thinkin about applyin EDII</p>

9

<p>They didn’t get rejected based on SAT scores, for sure…Other things must have been deficient…Emory is not all about scores…</p>

10

<p>Splinter - You will likely get in unless you write bunch of bs on the app essay like one of my friends did (I might post story if necessary)</p>

<p>same goes for you oakleys4</p>

<p>P.S. sure the SAT 2000+ is not the absolute requirement, yet it is a pretty darn good estimate of admission</p>

11

<p>I will give you some hints on writing a good essay</p>

<ol>
<li>write how much you love Atlanta and them Falcons</li>
<li>write about all the praises that Emory receive in princeton’s best college guide or what not</li>
<li>write about your fervent love with Mac</li>
<li>write about your infinite love for President Carter/Dalai Lama (write how you voted for him in his 2nd run and changed your religion to Tibet)</li>
<li>write about the pamphlet that Emory sends you (one that called something like why emory) examples are like, I love how Emory is so small yet it’s so big!!! OMG there are 35 majors possible? OMG there are 30% Asians~~~</li>
</ol>

<p>More to come </p>

<p>Love, </p>

<p>Emorybound</p>

12

<ol>
<li>write about you are “PRE - somthing (med/den/vet/business/law)”</li>
<li>write how much you love Coca Cola</li>
<li>write about brand new campus buildings</li>
<li>write how much you DO NOT like football (jk)</li>
</ol>

13

<p>Is achievement to form one’s identity too conventional, thus too boring for an admission essay?</p>

14

since u are 99.9% sure
lol</p>
