<p>I would say it’s a reach but definitely not impossible. If it was the math score that was 800 and the CR score that was 650 I’d say you were in better shape, if I read this correctly you’re saying you already applied, which I really don’t understand because NYU super scores and you could have improved that math score. I’d say you have a fine GPA IF that 3.72 is unweighted, weighted GPA is more important. Overall I’d say your chances aren’t great, but it’s not impossible by any means.</p>

<p>Thanks for your honest reply. I know my math score is quite low but I’m in AP Calc BC now so hopefully they’ll realize that I’m not horrible at math. Also, don’t you think that my foreign language study and semester abroad would be a help??</p>

<p>Oh and that is an unweighted GPA by the way (unofficial weighted GPA is 4.59</p>

<p>You’re good to go :)</p>

<p>Wow thanks… I’m not so sure but all I can do now is wait I guess…
Anyone else?</p>

<p>I think you have a good chance. Your numbers are probably in the lower median range in terms of GPA and SAT, but if your essay and recs are great, you should get in. :slight_smile:
P.s.
Your gpa and sat scores are very similar to mine and I’m also applying ED for stern :)</p>
