<p>I was actually wondering what my chances are at getting accepted into NYU. Any advice is greatly appreciated especially from those who are currently attending NYU.</p>
<p>Here are my credentials:
Junior at a large, highly competitive, public high school in Kansas
My parents moved to America from Pakistan; I was born in the U.S.
GPA (unweighted): 4.0 (all 'A's since freshmen year)
GPA (weighted): 4.5 (this is what I project my GPA to be by the end of first semester senior year)
Class Rank: top 3% (in a class of about 550)
ACT: I haven't taken the ACT yet, but let's assume I score a 29
AP/Honors classes: AP English (9, 10, 11, 12 grades), AP Chemistry, AP Biology, AP American Government, AB Calculus, Honors Pre-Calc, French IV (which counts for college credit at my school)
*I will be taking the AP tests for the classes above next spring and the spring following next spring. Let's assume I get a 3-4 on my AP tests.
ECs:
Orchestra (7th-12th grade)
Debate (9th-12th grade)
Forensics/Speech (10th grade)
French National Honors Society
National Honors Society
Hospital Volunteer (about 200 hours)
President's National Service Award (twice; both bronze)</p>
<p>If you need any additional information, let me know. Please note that some of these figures are projected because I am only a junior in high school. Any comments, sugestions, and advice is greatly appreciated!</p>
