<p>I posted it in the right forum this time since I had posted it in the wrong forum before lol :O
So its always been my dream to go to NYU, but I'm not sure if I could possibly be in range to even have a chance, nor am I even close to how smart some people here at CC are.
Im a junior in high school right now.
Bio Major/Pre-med</p>
<p>My UW GPA is a 3.85
I got a 3 in AP World
5 in AP Bio
5 in AP Lang
5 in AP USH
Taking AP Calc, AP Psych, AP Lit, and AP Gov in senior year.</p>
<p>I got a 32 on my ACT
I got a 1860 on my SAT
I got a 690 on Bio SAT II (I know its bad)
Im taking the Math 2 SAT II in October, confident for a 700+</p>
<p>Im president of the Spanish Club
Im secretary of Math Leads
Im VP of the School Band
I have played trumpet since 3rd grade, am in the Jazz and Marching band of my school. Our school has been selected to march before in many parades, including the ones in DC and NYC

Have won countless awards through our Science Olympiads program
Have received the honor roll every MP.</p>
<p>My sister currently attends NYU, if that's of any help :O</p>
<p>So what are my chances of getting into NYU or other colleges?
I want to do a bio major, going onward to dental school.
Also, what colleges other than NYU and Stone Brook should i be applying to?
Thanks guys <3</p>
<p>Submit your SATs and AP test; do not submit your SAT and you’ll have a very good chance of getting into NYU.</p>
<p>Are you looking to apply to Stern, CAS, Tisch, Gallatin?</p>
<p>I say submit your ACTs and you’ll have a good chance. Legacy helps</p>
<p>Thanks for the replies guys.</p>
<p>Question though, you said I should send my SAT IIs (im guessing) and my APs, but don’t they see your SAT I scores as well when you send in your subject test grades?</p>
<p>And I would be applying to CAS.</p>
<p>Also, do siblings count in a legacy? My sister goes there, but no parent or relative other than her goes there…</p>
<p>Finally, and I know I may be asking alot of questions, but what other colleges would I be applying to (as in my match, reach, safeties) for a bio major?
I wanted to feel smart for a couple hours and said to myself that I would ED Cornell, making it my high-end reach, and keeping NYU as my low-end reach/match.</p>
<p>But then I remembered you need over a 2200 for Cornell and I stopped dreaming lol…
You don’t have to respond to any of my silly questions though, thank you for the replies <3</p>
<p>Fantastic EC’s. Very good UW GPA, very bad test scores. NYU is very very difficult to get in now. I recommend increasing your SAT scores.</p>
<p>Take the SATs again. You should be able to get it up closer to 2000-based on your other academic achievements in school and ACT, etc. I think you should be capable of 2000-ish score. That would put you in a solid place for getting into NYU CAS. If not, then go with ACTs and subject test and APs. I don’t think they’ll see SAT 1 if you don’t let them.</p>
