<p>Verry good, and you are almost the same as me!
I'm also in the IB program, with good SAT scores, tons of clubs, volunteer work, etc. </p>

<p>BUT</p>

<p>I also have a relatively low GPA (3.6).
It doesn't exactly match up with the rest of my application.<br>
Its basically low because I didnt do any homework last year, lol.
I think my GPA is the main thing keeping me from applying to lots of schools.</p>

<p>But I still think you and I have a good chance of getting into NYU as CAS students. But I doubt we can make any specialty schools. Hmm.</p>
