Not good (If denied, deferred, or waitlisted, it will be your GPA that kills. Even if from a rigorous school, I’m thinking 3.4-3.5 is definitely expected), but you can try. You could be prepared for “college level” work, but that won’t necessarily convince Emory adcoms that you are prepared for Emory which is not necessarily the level of pre-college academics which are rather low stakes. Keep mind that an elite college wants to view itself as academically more rigorous than just any “college” rather true or not and take this approach in decision making. You would need support by things like good AP/IB or SAT II scores (or awards in academic areas) to show that you REALLY excel in particular subject areas.
