trying to gauge if i should ed1 stern or not.
weird case as last year i applied to cas and was accepted with 30k financial aid, but i rejected admissions because i wanted to apply to stern and to take a gap year to work on my business. international from canada
stats:
sat r/m: 1480
act: 33 (targeting 34 for oct 16)
sat 2: math 2c-790 physics-790
gpa: 4.0
5 AP’s: bio: 3 euro: 4 lit: 4 self study: calc bc: 4 phys1: 4
rank: 2/275
ec’s: long list but: 5 jobs, top ranked powerlifter, various volunteer organizations, most important ive started a business as a minihedge fund trading derivatives/stock with a few friends who are all moving to nyc with me next year regardless of the decision.
my recommendations are quite good
my essays i think are the best part of the application as a whole (mental illness in family + my business)
again, looking for advice on my chances and whether i should ED or not, thanks
