Chances of getting into NYU

Chance Me / Match Me!
1

<p>Hello everyone.</p>

<p>I am about to be a senior and I need to know my chances of getting into NYU, where I want to major in Computer Science. I have an SAT of 1600 (which is surprisingly good for my school) and a 3.1 GPA (which is obviously bad for any school). I plan on taking the SATs again and am trying my best to raise my GPA as much as possible. I go to a Vo Tech school where I've been studying manufacturing and engineering for three years so far. I can code in C++ and have just started learning Java on my own. I'm also quite skilled in CAD modeling, and have built and programmed a number of robots. My school has maybe 5 EC's available to students, but I have joined the MOE robotics team. I have great recommendations and have always been a strong writer. If i pull up my GPA and SAT what are my chances of getting in?</p>

<p>Thanks.</p>

<p>I always think their minimum SAT score is 1900.</p>

<p>If it helps, I’m African American and some of my engineering classes were college level.</p>

<p>Come on guys I’ve been obsessing over this for over a year now. Please post some insight.</p>

<p>u may have a chance but it does not seem that high right now… U should definitely try the SAT again or the ACT because some people do much better on the ACT. The extra stuff you added will probably end up helping you a lot but you are still in a pretty risky spot</p>

<p>Okay thanks. I just needed an opinion from someone else’s point of view.</p>
