Could anyone chance me?
Applying to CAS for economics. Male, Hispanic, double citizenship and US permanent resident.
SAT: Math 730 Reading: 640
GPA UW: 3.72 from overseas high school
valedictorian
EC’S: played soccer for 7 years in different clubs and countries ages 12 to 19. Worked as an Emerald Trader and obtain a Gemologist and Jeweler diploma.
Thank you
You have a really good GPA and you’re valedictorian of your class – which is amazing!! You also have super consistent EC’s – which NYU will really like – and being a Gemologist is really unique. I think you have a pretty good shot at being accepted, if not waitlisted then accepted. Good luck to you and I hope you get in! (":
with good essays, i’d say you have a decent shot of getting in, but honestly who knows. Is CAS the only school you applied to at nyu?
@jkimchi Thank you for your response, did you apply as well???
@camwow Thank you for your comment, I also applied for Tandon. Did you apply for NYU?
you are right, we’ll see next week
i think you have a good shot, especially with your ECs and if you have good essays. They like stories like yours. Just to be sure you know, you are competing against kids in the US with above 4.0 gpa’s (my friend has a 4.3 at a college graded school [i.e. he would have a 4.6/4.7 at a public school]) who also have great ECs, so nothing is certain. But good luck!
I did! I wrote a post about my stats as well if you’d like to chance me (:
