<p>I'm a pretty good writer so I hope that my essays will be eye-catching, there's really no way of telling what the admissions committee will like. I know at least one of my teacher recs will be amazing - my French teacher loved me - and I think that my guidance counselor one will be good, too.</p>

<p>I'm female, biracial (black and white). </p>

<p>thanks, you guys are awesome!</p>

<p>Well, your extra curriculars are basically unrelated to business, and your SAT II's are average. I would say that if you applied ED that you would have a 35% chance of getting into Stern. To me you look like more of a CAS or a Steinhardt applicant because of your interest in writing. GPA, ACT, and Rank especially are good. So yes, I would say 35-40% chance. Can you please chance me? Thank you! <a href="http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/592997-help-help-potential-nyu-stern-applicant.html%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/592997-help-help-potential-nyu-stern-applicant.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>Test scores are good, the fact that you are a mulatto woman will def. help. Most business schools are flooded with caucasian males, you'd be a breath of fresh air. ;)</p>
