<p>Hey guys i just finished my junior year and i starting to think about colleges. I attend New Hyde Park Memorial High School on Long Island, it is a blue ribbon school of excellence and is ranked about 70th in New York and is under 500 in all of America; i know that isnt great or anything but at least it is better than most.</p>

-I am ranked about 33 out of 327 kids in my graduating class.
-I have great recommendation letters from two well-known/influential teachers
-I want to pursue pre-medical studies while at college.</p>

<p>I am a good writer so i plan on having a great college essay, focusing mainly on karate and how it developed a sense of leadership and discipline within me. </p>

<p>Schools to chance me for:
Binghamton, Fordham.</p>

<p>Binghamton: Low match
Fordham: Safety</p>

<p>Why would you say im a low match for bing, you dont think i could get in?</p>

<p>Low match means almost safety. it’s possible for rejection but unlikely</p>

<p>Sorry to have scared you. Low match is a near-safety; I often use the term low match to designate a school choice where admission is likely but there’s still some room for rejection.</p>

<p>I think you have a pretty good shot at Bing. You will probably get in :)</p>

<p>You’re in my school… now to think, who was ranked 33…</p>

<p>Lol but anyway, I think you have a great shot at Bing, with your stats and ECS.</p>

<p>Sorry i posted the old Sat score, its actually a 2130, math and cr 1470</p>

<p>Binghamton is now a safety.</p>

<p>Very good chance for Binghamton. Fordham as well. Binghamton is my alma mater and a nice university. Pre-Med is not its forte but you can guide yourself well.</p>

<p>So guys i got deferred to reg decision, but alot of ppl from my school with worse stats than me got in. I think i had a solid essay but idk it could be anything. Do you think i still have a good chance for regular?</p>

<p>You should have a good chance for regular as long the regular pool isn’t too competitive. Though, I believe you should have been admitted through EA. I find it odd that they deferred you unless it was something else other than GPA and test scores.</p>

<p>i submitted my app on the very last day so maybe they had already reviewed alot of other ppls, just a guess</p>

<p>I know this is an old post, but OP did you get in? I’m interested in Bing and looking at your resume holistically I don’t understand why you were deferred :/</p>
