<p>so thats why i have no chance at wharton. people like you should disappear :P</p>

<p>haha you are definately a worthy applicant imo....great shot @ all of the schools on ur list...</p>

<p>gl!</p>

3

<p>solid, but i would try to improve the writing score.</p>

4

<p>i'd say it's worth a shot. Wharton accepts more ED than many of its peers, so that's a good call anyway. NYU is the only match on your list, though. Still need a safety...</p>

5

<p>Amazing stats and ECs. Pretty good shot. Nice imvolvement in business activities.</p>

6

<p>Yeah, do me up with a sample.</p>

7

<p>thanks for feedback...
I signed up for oct. SAT (to improve writing) but my counselor said not to take it because i have taken SAT 4 times already :-( so thats it for me...just gotta make those essays good</p>

<p>sample:heres a track i produced for the premier yale rap group 108 Tongues. its called Ecumenical...</p>

<p>I see you've taken the new Sat I and the writing portion of the SAT II. I didn't know they still had the SAT II writing test.</p>

9

<p>they dont, i took it like last november</p>

10

<p>wait stambliark, could you explain why NYU is a match, but not Umich or even berkeley? i've heard that NYU-stern is pretty darn competitive...</p>

11

<p>UMich is a match, imo.</p>

12

<p>wow i'm impressed with the sample. i was entranced...it even tore me away from my calc hw for a good half hour!</p>

13

<p>haha nice i have some more but they become more like technoish</p>

14

<p>Michigan is not a match if we are talking about Ross School of Business, which is likely to accept ~60 students. Michigan College is certainly a match, possibly a safe match. </p>

<p>Berkeley is more selective than NYU-Stern IF you are out state (which you are).</p>

15

<p>oh I didnt know the rate was so low...
thanks for that stambliark</p>

16

<p>Wharton ED- Rejected
but also NYU,- Accepted
Umich- Accepted
berkeley- Accepted
MIT -rejected</p>

17

<p>uhh Ross doesn't take undergrads until Junior year. You apply to the school as a freshman and then apply again during your sophomore year.</p>

18

<p>No. There is a new process in place called "preffered admissions." Read the UM boards.</p>

19

<p>there are 8 other people applying to wharton ED from my school
do you think that they would take the guy with better SAT (1600, 2340) and GPA (4.19) over the guy with a little less stats (1540, 2240, 4.02) but more leadership and business-related activities?
who will win the battle?</p>
