<p>Hi I want to know if I have a chance of getting into Emory if I apply ED or EA or whatever they call it here? I know Emory will be a reach for me, but I'm wondering if I have a decent chance if I apply ED. My only concern is my gpa. I think I'll finish hs with a 3.6 or 3.7, and also, my SAT scores suck **** right now. On my last practice test I got a 1900, after getting a 1700 on my first one. So I dunno, do I still have a chance at a hard university like emory or not?</p>

<p>getting your SAT scores over 2000 is a huge plus. but you shouldnt project yourself to get Bs no matter how hard it is.
the rest of ur resume so far is pretty impressive.</p>
