<p>How are my chance for SUNY Binghamton, SUNY Stony Brook, and Boston Univeristy?</p>
<p>Well here we go:</p>
<p>Math: 580
CR: 560
Writing: 540</p>
<p>Btw thats the best out of the 3 times I took the darn test.
I also took the SAT II in Math level I : 500</p>
<p>GPA weighted 4.0
Real GPA 95.63
Race: Pacific Islander
Top 5% of class.</p>
<p>I've alwasy taken the hardest courses my school has to offer. I'm in the Scholars program.
Here is what my senior schedule looks like:</p>
<p>A.P. Bio
College Level Macro Economics
College Level Calculus
College Level English
and of course religion....</p>
<p>Those college level courses are are sponsored by the near by university.</p>
<p>EC:
Secretary of a religious organisation in my school (LaSallian Youth) - 3 years
Senior Photograpgher and Editor for the Yearbook

Interact club member 2 years
NHS National Honor Society Member 2 years
Had a steady job for the past 5 years.
Studied Martial Art - achieved a rank of Black Belt (this might show determination to the colleges???)
Been published in a photograpghy magazine three times.
Well what do you think?</p>
<p>I hate the fact that colleges go off of standardized test, I'm a good student but I'm just bad at standardized tests...</p>
<p>Anyone please?
Lets say I got my SAT scores up to 600,600,550; how would that stack up for NYU give my EC"s?</p>
<p>Binghamton is a reach right now. It's application pool has significantly increased due to the economic crisis, and it has gotten much more competitive. Bring those SATs up as much as you can!!</p>
<p>What do you think about Stony Brook?</p>
<p>Also do you think it would be a bad idea to apply early action to Binghamton? Or do you think with my numbers I should wait?</p>
<p>You have a decent shot at Stony Brook, but getting to around a 1200/1600 puts you in a better position to being accepted.</p>
<p>At most schools, Early Action doesn't give the applicant a boost in admissions, so if I were you, I'd wait it out, study for the SAT, and bring up your scores.</p>
<p>Good luck!</p>
<p>OMG i hate college already lol.</p>
<p>Do you guys think Stony Brook is in the 'bag'?</p>
<p>I wouldn't say "in the bag", but I'd be surprised if you didn't get in.</p>
<p>Trust me. I'm also a terrible test-taker. Check out my scores (and chance me while you're at it! thx!) : <a href="http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/595620-my-terrible-test-scores-what-my-chances.html%5B/url%5D">http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/595620-my-terrible-test-scores-what-my-chances.html</a> But, I'd say write a pretty darn good essay and Boston U will be a match. Others...I'm not very familiar with. I'll let others chance that. Good luck!</p>
<p>Hmm any other takers? I'm so nervous....</p>
<p>those SAT scores are best out of 3 times? definitely don't retake. taking the SAT 4 times is not good..... you might as well put it down as an EC if you take it 4 times.</p>
<p>but given that</p>
<p>SUNY Stony Brook - match
SUNY Binghamton - reach
NYU - reach</p>
<p>How much of a reach in NYU?
LOL.... like jumping across the grand canyon?</p>
<p>Far reach or not so far?</p>
