<p>Hi guys, first time on this board. Please chance me for NYU Stern EDII</p>

<p>SATI: 2280 (710R, 800M, 770W [12 essay])
AP [Taken]: 5/4/5 (APUSH, Microeconomics, Macroeconomics)
Awards: AP Scholar
National Merit Semifinalist
Rank: N/A
GPA: School does not report GPA (sends transcripts) / Estimate is 94/100 (according to my counselor who does the number crunching if we want a raw #)</p>

<p>Senior Year Courses: AP Psychology, AP Computer Sci, AP AB Calc, + 3 other classes. Every class I have taken in high school is classified as an honors class. </p>

<p>My school essentially limits us to (at most 2) AP courses during junior year, and 3-4 during senior year. Recommendation is to not take all AP courses available since many of our classes are taught beyond the AP level and since collegeboard does not review our curriculum we cannot call our classes "AP".</p>

<p>ECs:</p>

<p>1) 4 yrs Swim team (captain)
2) Club swimming (since I was 5) city/state level swimmer
3) 100 hrs volunteer service @ a hospital
4) Working at a pharmacy in the summer (9/10/11th grade) 25 hrs a week
5) Helping out w/ family real-estate business - estimated 10 hrs a week around 4-5 months a yr
6) Internship at a financial services company in NYC (11th grade summer)
7) Powerlifting (wrote my essay on this, very important to me) (9/10/11/12) 10 hrs a week
8) Manager for Girls Swimming (1 season, 100 hrs total)
9) Member of Economics club, 2 years.</p>

<p>ESSAYS: Overall I would say they are strong. I wrote my common app essay about my personal growth through powerlifting. For the NYU supplement, I wrote about my love for NYC (born + raised!) and the opportunities that only a school in the city can offer as well as certain things about NYU's study abroad program which is extremely extensive. </p>

<p>Recs: Both my teacher RECs should be great. Was only taught by each of them for a year but I'm positive they liked me and enjoyed working with me.</p>

<p>Counselor Rec: Excellent as well. Great relationship with her.</p>

<p>Asian A.
Male
$$$$$$ (not applying for FA) </p>

<p>Accepted to UMICH + Indiana already. Deferred from Yale. </p>

<p>Honestly, NYU is where I want to be. There's no other school that can provide the same atmosphere that I have grown to love. Thanks for the help!</p>
