<p>I am a rising senior at a specialized public high school in NYC. My dad works at a deli store and makes around $20000 a year and my mom is a housewife, so we're not exactly rich. I'm Yemeni, so racially I classify myself as "other." My school doesn't rank whatsoever but I'd say I'm near the top 10%. My stats:
GPA: 4.0, weighted (my school doesn't provide us with the unweighted)
SAT:2300
Sat 2's: U.S. History- 800, World History-770, Literature-770, Spanish-710
APs: Us History-5,world History-5,Spanish-5, US Gov-5, English Composition-5
My ec's: Editor of school newspaper, secretary of UNICEF club, member of big siblings. During the summer of my freshman year, I volunteered at a local Islamic community center as an Arabic teacher for young children. The next summer, I volunteered at my dad's store because he needed the extra help. This summer, I'm volunteering at a local public library.
So what are my chances for the Ivies? Or NYU? Or Barnard? I'm looking closely at these schools but I really have no idea how competitive I am in regard to other applicants.</p>
<p>Ivies: reach, but aren’t they always?
Barnard: match/low reach, great chances
NYU: match
good luck!</p>
<p>Thanks Hannah! Anybody else?</p>
