<p>Hello all! </p>
<p>So I've been extremely nervous since I'm only planning to apply to NYU ED II. I really cannot imagine myself elsewhere, and having other options will be my downfall as I would settle or not try as hard - I know it's risky. Assuming that I have a solid essay and recommendations, what are my chances of getting into NYU? I have an international (IB curriculum style) background as well, as I only moved last year to the US, so there was a disruption of a few months. This international experience will play a large role in my essay.</p>
<p>I'll cut to the chase - </p>
<p>Rising senior, asian female.
Potential track/major: Pre-med track, neural science or bio med</p>
<p>Cumulative GPA: 4.42 (weighted, 5.0 scale)</p>
<p>APs: (5) Calculus BC, English Lang & Comp, (4) Computer Science A, Chemistry, US History</p>
<p>Senior year APs: French, Biology, Physics 2, US Gov, English Lit</p>
<p>SAT (first attempt, eheh didn't have time to study): 2110. Retaking in October. I can guarantee this will go up at least 100 points.
SAT II: Taking in November. Chemistry, Math II, perhaps English. </p>
<p>EC's were very hard for me as I entered freshman year late (due to moving) and could not establish myself in clubs, and sophomore year the clubs all changed (clubs differed from year to year). I did one varsity sports season, 2 years of music, and got a few music achievements. I learned dance at an academy, did some dance shows.
- This year I volunteered at a rehab center, and did an internship at another; both "big name" centers, if that matters.
- Officer position senior year in Interact Club.
- Tutored at local middle school</p>
<p>Received academic awards all three years (3 freshman, 2 sophomore?, 4 junior), and won 2nd place in a state programming competition.
Honors: NHS, Math HS, French HS, Headmaster's List</p>
<p>I'm definitely forgetting some details; however, based on this what do you all think? Thank you so much.</p>
