<p>I'm a senior in high school
I've taken all Honors and five A.P's
A.P Physics B
A.P Biology
A.P Calculus AB
A.P Language
A.P U.S History
However, I screwed up my A.P exams, so I'm not reporting the scores.</p>

<p>I have a 3.85/93 GPA
I'm ranked 80/691 (Top 12%)</p>

<p>I got a 2010 on my SAT
690 Reading
670 Math
650 Writing
I'm retaking it because my score went up to a 2100 on my practice tests.</p>

<p>EC:
Art Club
FBLA
Habitat for Humanity
Science National Honor Society
SQA (Vice President)
Korean Club
Orchestra all four years if that counts.
My EC suck, I KNOW.</p>

<p>I also have a part time job.
I did this volunteering thing for orchestra and special ed. kids.</p>

<p>Ummmm, I really wanna go to NYU. My other choices are:
Boston College
Boston University
Northeastern
Syracuse
University of Michigan
Emory University
Berkeley</p>

<p>If you don't think I can get it, what should I do to improve my chances?</p>

<p>What division/major at NYU?</p>

3

<p>Most likely CAS or Gallatin.
Applied Psychology or Psychology major</p>

<p>Don’t sweat ECs too much - my only one was theatre, and I got into CAS.</p>

<p>Definitely take the SAT again if you can raise your score, have a good essay, and I think you’ve got an excellent chance.</p>

<p>Thanks. BTW, where can I find the essay topic for NYU??</p>

6

<p>If you decide to apply to Gallatin your ECs will be important, and your essay will be EXTREMELY important. So you should focus on writing a really great essay.</p>

<p>Definitely take the SAT again if you think you can raise it. Also, have you considered taking the ACT? Some people do significantly better on one test than the other.</p>

7

<p>I was thinking about the ACT, but so much money has been spent on SAT tutoring anyways. So I’m taking the ACT, but I’m not expecting a miracle.</p>

<p>Also, what are my chances? I’m leaning more towards CAS. Even Steinhardt. Not really Gallatin, though. Don’t know why I put that O.O</p>

<p>I forgot what school psychology was. But am I okay for CAS?</p>

8

<p>Yes you have a good shot at CAS right now</p>
