<p>I think you have a great shot at admission RD, but ED would 'up' your chances even more. I am not, however, a big advocate of ED, so I would only recommend it if NU is far-and-away your number 1 choice, and if you wouldn't really have a problem paying for it. Did you go to an NYC public (but not one of the specialized schools ie- Bronx Science)? Besides your stats, I think you have a lot going for you, just make sure essays and recs are killer, and I'd say you have a really good shot. Good luck!</p>
