Chance Me / Match Me!

<p>Sigh...I really want to go to NYU but I'm not sure I'm qualified. Stern is my dream but I am realistic haha. I am applying ED1.</p>

<p>So, I really messed up my freshman year...my GPA was 3.0 unweighted
Since then, I have continuously being working harder and my GPA has gone up to around a 3.6ish my Junior year.</p>

<p>So overall GPA: 3.35 with the upwards trend.</p>

<p>I am a Dutch citizen so hopefully that helps due to NYU's big international statistics.</p>

<p>SAT CR: 630
SAT MATH: 710
SAT Writing: 670</p>

<p>My grades earlier in my high school career prevented me from taking challenges classes. So in my senior year, I will take AP World, AP Econ, Honors Spanish, Honors Model UN, Honors Marketing, Honors Management, and Honors US II.</p>

<p>-I've been on the tennis team for all three years (captain of JV)
-I went to DECA Nationals and placed 4th in the State Conference.
-I did the Stock Market Club in my Junior year and I'm continuing to do it my Senior year.
-I was treasurer for my Mock Trial Club but I quit after sophomore year because I realized -I didn't want to study law.
-I work at a swim club and teach tennis in the summer and I have worked in the Netherlands at my grandfather's pizzeria.
-I take Dutch lessons with my parents for an hour a week and I used to take Italian lessons outside of school.
-I practice tennis for around 6 hours each week (more during the tennis season, obviously)
-I also play bass guitar and I take lessons once a week.</p>

<p>I'm also looking at Villanova, Bucknell, Babson, Northeastern, Drexel, and Boston College, so if you have any opinion about any of those, I would love to know!</p>

<p>All of them are low matches and safeties except for Bucknell and Boston College! Good luck and chance me back plz</p>

<p>NYU, especially Stern, is a reach for you. Bump up your SAT score a little and you’ll be a more competitive applicant :)</p>

<p>Villanova: low reach
Bucknell: low reach
Babson: high match
Northeastern: high match / low reach
Drexel: low match
BC: reach</p>

<p>Good luck! :)</p>

<p>Thank you everyone!
I also have 3 outstanding letters of recommendation and my essays are very unique and well written.</p>

<p>Since it seems like it is your freshman grades that are holding you back you might want to look at McGill since they only care about your grade 10, 11 and 12 marks. They don’t even look at your grade 9 marks when deciding admission.</p>

<p>McGill is a little far for me but thanks for the opinion!</p>

<p>Keep the chances going please! :)</p>

<p>Same GPA as you, similar list, just slightly off SAT scores compared to you. Bring up the reading bit and the others a bit for a fighting chance. Here’s how I see it unfolding from the schools I know:
McGill: Low to mid reach
Northeastern: Admit (match or high match)
Boston College: Admit (high match)
Babson: Admit (safety)</p>

<p>Money may come into a factor, with you being an international citizen and all. hope financing isn’t a huge issue…</p>

<p>Chance me maybe?

Good luck!</p>

<p>For schools that do not take in account 9th grade, the OP’s GPA is 3.52 for grades 10-11.</p>

<p>McGill Desautels: Aim for 29+ on the ACT</p>

<p>Thank you for the input! Sorry if I wasn’t clear but I’m not really interested in McGill, although I know it’s a great school!</p>
