Another CHANCE ME (sorry)

[Elizo007]

<p>I applied ED to CAS. Planning to major in Economics.</p>

<p>I’m an international applicant from Poland. (white female)</p>

<p>Graduated from HS last spring, taking a break :-)</p>

<p>Attended a good (very old and historically very prestigious) high school in Warsaw</p>

<p>GPA: 5.2/6.0
Rank: 2/663 (1st in my class, but my school doesn’t rank this way…)
SAT: 2240 superscored (2220 on both single sittings) CR 750, W 730, M 760
ATC: 32
SAT II: World Hist. – 750, Math IIC – 760
TOEFL: 109/120 iBT</p>

<p>ECs:
- finalist of Human Rights Olympiad
- school paper for two years (one as editor)
- volleyball team
- class president for a year
- founded an econ club in my school
- girl scout (leader of a group of about 20 girls), organized a lot of outings and trips
- a lot of charity work
- volunteer helping children with their school work
- currently working for a big insurance company
- spend two summers in a row working for big non-government organizations in Belgium and Ukraine
- got a lot of money in scholarships (I don’t know it that matters) </p>

<p>I have nice recommendations from teachers and people I worked for.
Pretty good, though probably not great essays.</p>

<p>I’m freaking out :)</p>

<p>i’m not sure about the specifics for cas economics, but you seem like a fit for cas in general. i’ve never heard of the 6.0 gpa scale though!</p>

<p>Godly SAT II world history score I might add.</p>

[Elizo007]

<p>@sigoaqui: Not only it’s 6.0 scale but 6 is given only for some outstanding achievements in that field OUTSIDE school. Like, you can’t get a 6 on a test… But I bet NYU doesn’t know about it so GPA is actually sth I’m really worried about…</p>

<p>@SleepingGrunt: Thanks :)</p>

<p>Well you’re more qualified than I was and I got in. </p>

<p>Don’t worry too much .</p>
