Okay so, I’m applying to NYU, Duke, and Boston University as my reach schools for the class of 2025. In my class I’m ranked 13/650, my weighted gpa is a 101.2 because my school does the 100 scale, and my unweighted is in the mid 90s. I’m going into Economics, and I’m not submitting my SAT score.
I’ve taken a few APs, 4 in my junior year and 3 senior year currently. I’ve gotten a 5 on AP Lang, a 4 on APUSH, and I didn’t submit my other scores.
I’ve won the DECA regional events competition in business finance and a few other awards but all local/school. I interned for a state Senator the summer of 2020 until Election Day in November, did a lawyer camp one summer, in multiple honor societies, founder of leadership club in my school, and in NHS. I also work part time at Kohl’s.
BU is not a reach school for you. Although it is not safe, you should be admitted. For NYU, will you be applying to Stern? You have about a 1/3 chance of being admitted to NYU and slightly less for Stern. The odds of being admitted to Duke are low.
