<p>Sorry its a bit long guys. =[]
thanks a lot!</p>

<p>btw, my school’s weight system is horrible. I was one of two people in my grade that took an extra ap class junior year. basically most rigorous courseload that was available</p>

<p>and me being my boring self who cant go to sleep decided to brain dump on the limeric part. what do u think =]</p>

<p>yo, my name is joe
i guess you could call me a pro
in everything i do
and yes its true
some say i can even glow!</p>

<p>lol. it’s humorous. ^__^</p>

<p>As for chances. I’d say low reach because I have stats similar to yours and I was told that it’s a low reach for me.</p>

<p>bumping =]</p>

<p>I say you’re a high match. GPA is probably around the average for Stern, but the Math I score is a little low.</p>

<p>thanks a lot… i just took the sat ii math but idt i did well. i also took the acts which im confident i beasted on.</p>

<p>just another note… nyu only wants one recomendation letter right?
b/c i got to read my ltr of rec. from my world history teacher who taught me 9-10, has a doctorate and is now the head of the social studies department. anyways she wrote in her letter that i was basically one of the most exceptional student that she ever worked with… sounds good?</p>

<p>did they not want one from the counselor as well?</p>

<p>yeah… i meant one recomendation from a teacher seeing how most universities ask for two from teachers and one from a guidance counselor</p>

<p>hahah i sent in 4 recommendation letters :slight_smile: im not too sure if they actually read all of them but oh wells! but the original question. honestly, i think stern accepts people with a strong mathematics background (from many personal experiences with sternies) and your score might be a little low. But always apply anyways because it really depends on how well you write your essays!
p.s. youre very similar to me! almost like the male counterpart (except i dont play soccer but i do taekwondo too!) and i got in so i think youll be finee :)</p>

<p>You should be fine.
Good thing Stern only looks at Math+CR.
I got rejected with almost similar stats for ED.
I had slightly lower GPA and SAT scores.
I would say Match - Low Reach.
If you applied ED you would have definitely gotten in though. :/</p>

<p>did u guys get into stern?
idk… i thought a potential hook would be that im getting recruited by nyu. won’t know for sure until after the disney tournament (12/30). only thing is that nyu is a diii school so idk if it matters seeing how i contacted a friend who plays for nyu and said his friend from the same school with grades that matched mine still got rejected after applying to stern…</p>

<p>LOL hi joe. gl hope you get in! 3 people from my school got into stern and they weren’t crazy qualified or anything.
see you at myo in a couple weeks ahaha</p>

<p>■■■■■ nelson… . hahaha… what gave it away? i heard u got in man. great job… how good were the oteher three?</p>
