<p>mmmmm…its really tough to tell , you get some good EC’s there but on the other hand your sat’s are not that good…but my guess is since your’e not applying for financial aid , there is a chance :smiley:
chance back ?

<p>I would say it’s a low reach</p>

<p>chance back?</p>

<p>Sorry I’m new, is a low reach easier than a high reach?</p>

5

<p>bump, bump.</p>

6

<p>good ECs, but it’s quite a reach given your SAT scores.</p>

7

<p>Yes I believe it is. The trend I’ve gotten is it goes in this order from best to worst chances.</p>

<p>In
Match
Low Reach
Reach
High Reach</p>

8

<p>Bump. Bump.</p>

<p>Thanks, What do you think of my chances at Boston university with these stats. I wrote a pretty damn good supplemental essay. Also Umass and Newhouse? Wrote great supplements for the latter too.</p>

10

<p>Also do you think I have a chance of being LSP’d?</p>

11

<p>I mean it’s possible but the students I know in LSP had at least 1900 or 2000. If you’re GPA is good (3.7 or so), I’d say you have a good shot at LSP</p>

12

<p>umm i say low reach. my friend got in with 36… but better SATs</p>

13

<p>how much better if you don’t mind me asking?</p>

<p>If you go to the links I’ve posted, you’ll get an idea of the kind of students who are getting into the different NYU schools:</p>

<p>As you’ll see, most CAS admits are in the 2100-2200 SAT range and/or have GPAs above 3.6. LSP is marginally lower. Given your stats, CAS would be a reach, but not impossible.</p>
