Chance Me / Match Me!

<p>Hello there...I am going to be a senior this year at a High School in New York. I am very interested in persuing an education in the business field therefore I have narrowed down my choices of colleges to Boston University, NYU, Northeastern and Northwestern.</p>

<p>I am planning on doing a Early Decision application to Boston University but do not want to get turned down. This is my situation.</p>

<p>My transcript average is about 89
I got a 1810/2400 on the NEW SAT's
570 on both the writing and critical reading
670 on the math</p>

<p>I am a President of a club and am in many more and have a part time job. </p>

<p>Since the NEW SATs already has the writing section which was previously an SAT2, I'm wondering if I should early decision to BU after taking ONE more SAT2 which would make it a total of TWO sat2's instead of waiting til the regular admissions deadline and taking 2 more sat2's which would make it a grand total of 3 sat2's. What do you think my chances are and what should I do :(</p>

<p>The writing section in the new SAT doesn't count as an SAT II. You'll have to take two SAT II's this fall.</p>

<p>Your SAT score is low. Can you bring it up to a 1900? If you can do that and score 650+ on your SAT II's and apply ED, you'll have a good shot.</p>

3

<p>I dont have time to take the SAT's again I need to use the remaining test dates to take the sat2's</p>

4

<p>can't you do SAT in october, SAT II in november (or vice versa)? I think they would still accept scores from november in the ED round, but you should check.</p>

5

<p>i need to have at least 2 sat2 grades as a minimum for bu. i'm doing ed2 so itll be delayed a while so i can get 2 sat2s in...</p>

6

<p>you can take ACT with writing and submit in place of SAT II</p>

7

<p>i havent really prepared for the ACT exam...is it easy?? :-D also... what if i dont score all that great ill just be digging myself into a bigger hole with boston university</p>

8

<p>You can take up to 3 SAT IIs on one testing date.</p>

9

<p>You definitely have time. I would take your SAT II's first, then retake the SAT I in November. I am going to do the same.</p>

10

<p>really?! no way! isnt that like slaughter though? also... which sat2's would you guys recommend for a business major?</p>

11

<p>Hmm... You should definitely take a math (Level 2 if possible), and a science (bio/chem/physics).</p>

<p>you have no chance</p>
