Chance me for NYU?

Applying to College
1

<p>Applying to College of Liberal Arts and Sciences for mathematics. </p>

<p>UW gpa: about 3.7 (upward trend from freshman to junior)
W gpa: about 4.2
No class rank, but I estimate top 10-15%.</p>

<p>SAT I: 2110 (740 math, 730 writing, 640 reading)
SAT II: Math (800), Physics (730)
ACT Composite: 34 (36 math, 36 reading, 32 english (30 with writing), 33 science)</p>

<p>Extracurriculars: math team (4 yrs), future business leaders of america (2 yrs), First Class (3 yrs), band (4 yrs), orchestra (3 yrs), robotics (1 yr)</p>

<p>Volunteer: Chinese school teacher's assistant for two years</p>

<p>Work: Worked at Kumon for half a year; quit for math team/academics</p>

<p>Classes taken: freshman to junior were the highest level courses I could given the standard curriculum of math, english, foreign language, science, history. 9 honors, 4 AP (not including senior year)</p>

<p>Senior year classes: AP Calc BC, AP Statistics, AP Biology, AP Lit. I dropped social studies to take another math course and dropped language because of schedule conflicts; would it hurt me if I didn't explain this somewhere in my application? </p>

<p>AP scores: 4 on Euro, 5 on Lang, 4 on Physics B, 3 on APUSH (I don't plan on sending these in on the application, lol. The APUSH one just looks bad.)</p>

<p>Awards: lmfao. Um. FBLA (regionals and state) and National Merit Commended. That's really about it.</p>

<p>Umm. Is that it? I think so. I hope so. Thank you! :)</p>

<p>I’d say you have a very good chance.</p>

<p>I think you’ve got a great shot! However; I wouldn’t submit my SAT scores; I’d definitely go with your ACT scores. Your chances will be higher if you submit your ACT scores than if you submit your SAT scores.</p>

<p>Good luck</p>

<p>Thanks :slight_smile: If I submit both, would it hurt me? It’s mostly the SAT Math II that I want them to see…</p>

<p>Thanks :slight_smile: Haha, looks like I should just stick to my ACT score then. Thanks :D</p>

Going into my senior year with a 3.7 GPA weighted, top 5-10%, some AP courses (Language and Comp, Chem, European History, American Government, US History, Lit). SAT 1670 (M 530, CR 600, W 540), studying to improve. EC… We the People Program Citizen and the Const. in 9th (nationals), volleyball all years, lacrosse 3 years, basketball management 2 years. some volunteer work this summer. </p>

<p>interested in CAS, individual study, steinhardt</p>

<p>you are fine. good luck.</p>

<p>Math majors are scarce from what I have seen since being in college. I think you’d be a great fit.</p>

<p>Thank you, hopefully you’re right!</p>
