<p>What do you all think? I know my test scores are a little low for NYU but I am hoping that my extracurriculars will help. I have taken a good amount of AP's and Honors, but have taken a few regular classes also because I changed schools as a sophomore and it kind of messed up my schedule. </p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>I know how the changing schools goes.
It's even worse halfway through junior year. I'm still scrambling to meet graduation requirements in random areas like a second semester of World Geography. So every spare moment I have before school I have to go in and do it on the school's computer system thing, which is hard because I'm often holding some meeting or doing more important homework or more stuco stuff or sleeping haha.</p>

<p>I don't know what to tell you, but your ec's look impressive.</p>
