<p>+++also, i'm thinking about applying to NYU with my satII (sub test) scores (listed above)
do i have a better chance with my satII scores or with my act scores?
i talked to the nyu rep and they said i can submit any one of the SAT, SATII (math+science+other), AP (math, science, other) or ACT w/ writing.</p>
