<p>I hope they let you in (you look very qualified. According to your scores, you should have gotten into Cornell but maybe they weren’t impressed with the other stuff or something. Okay, well you probably applied to engineering which is a different ball game. They likely expected you to already have AP calc. and a physics B or C credit). I think they (Emory) would definitely want you, especially in an ED round. What do you plan to do at Emory? Are you considering the 3/2 engineering program. Your record seems to indicate so. I mean you could do pre-med with that talent, but that’s boring (unless you do like math, physics, or chemistry with it. A person with your talent doesn’t belong exclusively to the biology or NBB dept). As for course rigor, it’s good. You took a reasonable AP load and so far have showed promise on the exams (again send exam scores if you haven’t already). Your interest in learning or participating in a language to that degree displays interest for the liberal arts (you aren’t Japanese are you?), so that helps even more. By the way, when you get to Emory, please don’t take Japanese as your foreign language. You’ll be wasting time (though it is a very rigorous program and a good community, I still don’t think it’s worth the time for someone with that much experience). Try something different, maybe even cool like Tibetan, Arabic or something. And as normal, I advise talented students in math and science to skip out of as many parts of the intro. sequences as possible (especially since you may be pre-engineering). Skip CS 170 and Calc. 111 (take calc. 112-Z if offered). Also, take some cool history and political science courses (go straight to 2-300 level special topics courses) since it seems you like that sort of thing (use them to enjoy Emory and fullfill GERs. Maybe even consider voluntary core as these faculty members are top notch: <a href=“Voluntary Core Curriculum Program”>Voluntary Core Curriculum Program). I know you wanted to go straight into an engineering school, but Emory’s 3/2 program may be a good fit for you especially if you excel in a diverse set of interests and would like to continue entertaining the non-science interests. Good luck, you have a good chance!</p>
