@ricecream : Did your brother have similar credentials or are yours better? The SAT (on new scale ) is apparently a hair below the mean of scores for the new scale at Emory and thus definitely at Rice. Did your brother only take about 3 APs before senior year and how did he do? And when did your brother matriculate? Knowing these things will help me a little more to figure out what they want/expect from your HS or locale in terms of raw credentialsI guess.
Asian female is fine at Emory. Emory obviously has no problem admitting Asians (from what I remember not all Asians had super jacked test scores versus say whites as Emory was like it was today, not as test score sensitive as others) and obviously not women (has been for the past like 3-5 years admitting incoming cohorts with like 56-58% women).
