<p>yup. It’s getting tougher!</p>

<p>nobody???</p>

<p>Well, you seem to have really good EC’s, and is ur major related to those EC’s? U seem to be very inclined towards the arts side. So, I think u r set in terms of EC’s.</p>

<p>Ur SAT is low for Columbia, but it is around the average for JH, Emory, and NYU. So, maybe u should retake the SAT for a better score just for more security and if u really want to go to Columbia.</p>

<p>Grades and percentages are very different in India (my cousin said 70% is like distinction or something). So, what would ur GPA be with the 75% incorporated? I would say that for Columbia, u should have at least a 3.9, but for JH, Emory, and NYU, a 3.8 or higher I think would suffice. </p>

<p>So, really try to increase your grades and study harder. Also, continue to make more strides in ur EC’s, and I think u have a really good chance, especially at JH, Emory, and NYU.</p>
