90-100(4) 90-100 (4.5) 90-100 (5)
80—89(3) 80—89 (3.5) 80—89 (4)
70—79(2) 70—79 (2.5) 70—79 (3)
65—69(1) 65—69 (1.5) 65—69 (2)</p>

<p>I have two questions.</p>

<ol>
<li><p>What would my chances be if I applied to the Stern School of Business? It seems to be harder to get accepted into than the rest of NYU.</p></li>
<li><p>If I ED, how would it effect my chances of getting into Stern?</p></li>
</ol>

<p>Stern would be a reach, its as hard to get into as the ivies because its such a super-prestigious business school, sending Investment Bankers right out of undergraduate making $100,000 per year! (Sometimes). You will rarely find such a money-making undergrad, and thats the reason why its so expensive</p>
