<p>Yeah, so that's everything I guess
I want to major in business (mainly finance, but I'll settle for management and so forth) Some Colleges that I'm anxious to be chanced on:
Columbia (maybe ED? my brother goes there) - I know it has no UG business but its a great school nonetheless
Wharton (how bad of a reach)
NYU Stern
UMICH Ross
UT Austin
Carnegie Mell - Tepper
UC Berkeley - Haas
anything else? </p>
<p>Thanks for reading all of this and I greatly appreciate any of your replies.</p>
<p>SAT’s. As an Asian from NJ, you are in one of the most competitive pools. Your SATs are a bit below median for Wharton and they should be well above for a real shot.</p>
<p>I wouldn’t listen to these guys. I think if you ED to Wharton, you’ll get in.</p>
<p>For RD:
Wharton (how bad of a reach)- High match
NYU Stern- In
UMICH Ross- In
UT Austin- Match
Carnegie Mell - Tepper- Low match
UC Berkeley - Haas- High match, low reach
anything else? </p>
<p>I’d also look at UVA, Cornell (AEM), MIT, and throw an app. to Princeton Economics while you’re at it. Can’t hurt.</p>
<p>Median at Wharton is over 2250, Columbia about 2200, don’t know the others. Keep in mind that’s the overall median and includes the 40% of the class that are recruited athletes, URMs and legacies. Not to mention those from the Dakotas and other underrepresented places and others who meet institutional needs.</p>
<p>I don’t see why people are saying that you’d need to raise to get into Wharton, etc. I think you’re in all schools and Wharton if you do ED. I’m not sure about Columbia, however.</p>
<p>is that really so? I always thought that wharton students were all geniuses and whatnot.
what would be an approximate percentage of me getting in that cause thats definitely my dream school.</p>
<p>you’re better off looking at the profiles of the people who got in. there’s a thread somewhere on cc about that. people who havent been accepted to these schools won’t be able to give you any helpful information but a superficial judgement</p>
