<p>Hi. I was just wondering if you guys could chance me for CAS ED</p>
<p>SAT: Math: 610, Reading: 530 (Retaking October)
ACT: 26
SAT II: Chemistry: 680, Spanish: 600 (Retaking Spanish)
GPA (unweighted, weighted): 4.0 / 3.7
Course work: Almost all honors and APs
EC: Very strong extracurricular and volunteer work
College work: Currently I'm taking Advanced Spanish Grammar and Composition at Rutgers University, during the fall talking another Spanish course at a local college.</p>
<p>Thanks!</p>
<p>Definitely apply ED. Need to boost both SAT scores. NYU CAS is a reach. But if you have strong recs and essays, you have a shot at liberal studies. Good luck! anything is possible.</p>
<p>You have a chance at CAS, but not a good one. Your gpa is good, but your test scores kind of suck, which makes it seem like your high school classes were easy. If I were you I would apply ED to boost your chances, if you're sure NYU is your 1st choice. Good luck!</p>
<p>Do you think that the class at Rutgers I'm taking will improve my chances?</p>
<p>It can't hurt, but it is not going to accept you. You have a decent shot at ED CAS Liberal studies. NYU is very selective/random so you will just have to perfect everything you can and hope for the best. Good luck!</p>
<p>Also, try and increase your ACT score.</p>
<p>The Rutgers class is a nice thing to add to your transcript, but it won't help you out a lot. </p>
<p>I agree that you have a shot at LS. To give you a little perspective, I had a 3.64 UW gpa, a 2140 SAT I, 8 AP classes with the rest mostly honors, average extra-curriculars, decent community service, went to a top public school, and I got into the Liberal Studies Program (formerly GSP) Regular decision. I think your stats also put you in the LS range, but who knows, you might get into CAS. It almost seems random.</p>
<p>Thanks for your comments. I would actually be content with LS.</p>
