<p>Essay- "Table".
I will write about a "Table".How the table is important to me: In Africa my family and I were in a war and so we hide underneath the table from the bombs. Now, since I am in the USA for many years, don’t know exact number... but anyways, now my parents uses it to talk about bills and how will survive for next day. </p>

<p>So the essay will be a contrast of the use of a table in two different countries and different situations.</p>

<p>It is something unique, right?</p>

<p>Majors don't really matter at all to be honest with you. Your URM status will help.</p>

<p>what about my sat and rank?
will that hurt me?</p>

6

<p>i think your SAT and rank put you on the border...if you write killer essays and get awesome recs then you'll probably have a better chance :)</p>

<p>good luck!</p>

7

<p>Which rank puts me on border? the 50% or 25</p>

<p>ADD for Club: Moot Court
I just got into the moot court for my highschool. I will be the lawyer, ya(I have mixed emotions about it)</p>

8

<p>50% ranking is....not good. 25% is borderline for NYU I think because like 70 percent of the kids are Top 10%.</p>

9

<p>Would I be better off, if I change my economics class to phyiscs because the physics teacher is an alumni from NYU?
Then he could give me a nice LOR .</p>

10

<p>I just found out that his father is the admission officer of nyu, so he is a really good LOR and another teacher of mine came from there. </p>

<p>THANK GOD FOR LOR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!</p>
