<p>First off, your SAT scores are pretty weak looking with 570 in Math
Its nice that you’re in clubs, but did you contribute anything special while in said clubs?
Nice volunteer work and nice honors</p>

<p>NYU Poly, NYU, and Rutgers are in possible reaches for you
Georgetown and Boston are mid reach
Columbia- Far REACH… sorry but it really comes down to scores and only ~10% get in, i think less last year</p>

<p>BTW im applying to NYU Rutgers and Columbia too
