Chance me for NYU

<p>I'm a sophomore in high school. I plan on majoring in Business, either Economics, or Finance. I want to work as an investment banker. I want to go to Stern. My backups are CUNY, and Fordham (In New York, at least). There's a few other colleges I'm looking at too.</p>

<p>My credentials:
About a 3.8 GPA, only rising
I got a 1560 on the PSATs with no studying or preparation, I got about 85th percentile, which is 1800-1900 on the normal SAT.
Writing was my highest SAT score, followed by Math, reading was the lowest.
I'm a member of the History Club
I plan on doing some volunteer work this summer.
I plan on joining FBLA next year, there were no spots open this year.
I take all Honors classes, with the exception of Spanish, which will be honors next year.
I have taken a few AP courses, and plan to take more
I've got an A in all of my business classes so far
I'm taking Marketing I next year, Marketing II senior year.
I'm taking Principals of Accounting, and Principals of Law in High School.</p>

<p>I think that if you raise your SAT score a bit you’ll be a pretty good candidate :)</p>

<p>If I study for it this time I think I could get it up a little bit.</p>

<p>Ideally, you want to raise that SAT score to a 2100. Also, make sure to actually do all the stuff you planned; devote yourself to your EC’s. And write great essays.</p>

<p>You seem like a really strong candidate–Stern is hard to get into, but I’d say you have a decent chance. It’s good you’re taking buisness classes beforehand (and succeeding). Good luck!</p>

<p>I think for NYU you have to have at least a 2000.
This year they had a record number of applications.
Good luck!</p>

<p>I’m hoping my 1900 sat and 29 act will get me into Stern… :&lt;/p>

<p>its okay. you will get in. im not an admissions officer and i dont control your fate. :).</p>

<p>Bump, can some more people answer?</p>

<p>If SAT scores are all that matters right now, I got into Stern with an 1830 SAT, so it can be done. Take that for what it’s worth.</p>
