Chances at USC, NYU, BU

<p>White male from one of the top public high schools in Missouri.</p>

<p>GPA: 3.8 uw, weighted unknown</p>

<p>SAT: CR 720, M 710, W 730
Just took US History and Literature SATIIs, and expecting 740+ in each.</p>

<p>ACT: 33 composite</p>

<p>Will have completed 5 AP courses and several accelerated courses by graduation.</p>

<p>Most of my EC's are related to my personal artistic achievements, such as recording two solo instrumental albums, performing at several nation-wide invitational guitar conferences (as well as extensive local performance), and work in amatuer film and photography. I am also a blackbelt in Kenpo after 12 years of training, have several years of high school football and basketball, am president of the school's bowling club, and belong to a few other clubs, such as Animal Rights.</p>

<p>Great essays and great recs, as far as I know.</p>

<p>Applied to:
USC
NYU (CAS)
BU
Miami (Coral Gables)
UNC (my brother attends, so I thought I'd give it a shot)</p>

<p>Thanks for any help.</p>

<p>did you apply anywhere early? I think you have a great shot at all your schools</p>

<p>No, I didn't apply anywhere early.</p>

<p>USC - safe match
NYU (CAS) - sage match
BU - safety
Miami (Coral Gables) - safety
UNC (my brother attends, so I thought I'd give it a shot) - match</p>

<p>apply to an Ivy</p>

<p>Being from missourri is a HUGE plus</p>

<p>Missouri is your hook. You have a good shot at Cornell or Dartmouth. You should apply there. But I think your in at USC and NYU!</p>

<p>I only hesitate to apply to any Ivies due to two C+'s I got junior year, which I thought they would look down upon.</p>

<p>what highschool do attend? I go to Ladue</p>

<p>I also go to Ladue.</p>

<p>*Also, I forgot to mention I'm a National Merit Semi-Finalist. I'm not sure how much that affects admission, but I thought I should include it.</p>

<p>aha nice, il probably figure out who u are by the end of the year....:)</p>

<p>Im a junior, but im looking at NYU (CAS) too. GPA is slightly higher but tests are lower so we kinda have equal chances i think. Good luck! AHH we are the same, my grades are going down too because of Sonius and Dr. Burkhard, damn them both.</p>

<p>PS. Did u apply ED anywhere?</p>

<p>I dont go to Ladue</p>

<p>i know that, i was talking to asarg, as it was he/she that responded to my post "Do you go to ladue?"...</p>

<p>Your stats are great for those schools, I encourage you to try a reach school.</p>

<p>i know, i was just joking around!</p>
