<p>Things unsure of helping resume:

-In the 2008-2010, I was the only Scholastic News Reporter (Kid Reporter/Volunteer) in my regional area of US. I was heavily involved with 2008 election-interviewed many candidates Hillary Clinton, Barrack Obama, Joe Biden, and many more etc. Wrote many articles/stories for the magazine to inform other kids around the world.
-In elementary school- had a citizen ship award started after me. (also was involved student council 3rd-5th)

<p>You attend the top school in the state and your SATs are 600/600/600?? And you are taking college classes now? Sounds like you need to increase your SAT scores.</p>

<p>Why NYU Stern?</p>

<p>Since you are in a very competitive school and have diverse and countless EC’s, try increasing your SAT to 2000+
I suggest applying ED since you are OOS and your SAT. Since you are planning to retake it, I wouldn’t worry so much (: Good luck,</p>

<p>Chance me and my friend back?</p>

<p>Retake the SAT for at least a 2100, or take the ACT. If you can get those scores up, I don’t think you need to apply early! Good luck and chance me back? <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1673832-will-chance-back-chance-me-for-cmc-barnard-bryn-mawr-columbia-stanford-cornell-umich-stern.html#latest”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1673832-will-chance-back-chance-me-for-cmc-barnard-bryn-mawr-columbia-stanford-cornell-umich-stern.html#latest&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
