<p>hkkxp - I think you have an excellent chance getting into CAS ED :D. You stats (even without a retake!) and EC's look fine.</p>

<p>At this point just take a deep breath, and default to a "hey, whatever is meant to be, is meant to be" attitude. If you are meant to attend NYU, things will fall into place, if not, I am sure that something else, just as great or even better, will come your way :).</p>

<p>Best of luck to you and keep us posted!</p>

3

<p>do a good essay, have good personal responses, and you're fine</p>

4

<p>Relax, I think you have a great chance at getting into CAS ED.</p>

5

<p>whoa! I had that much chance? </p>

<p>I retook the SAT last week and I think I did pretty well... about 20XX... </p>

<p>time to write those short responses!</p>

6

<p>you'll do great! best of luck with your new SAT scores! :)</p>

7

<p>you marched crusaders this summer?</p>

8

<p>kinda, not really. lol
but I still have a letter saying that I did.. so ..
I guess I will write it down.</p>

9

<p>you have a shot, now it's up to your essays and personal responses. i would prefer a higher SAT score in the 700s for each subject but it's decent.</p>

10

<p>"Varsity Marching Band"</p>

<p>Lol... I'm sorry, but marching band as a varsity sport just astounds me.</p>

<p>And I'd say don't worry, you'll get in. SAT's a little low, but your GPA is I think exactly the same as mine was when I applied ED, and to Stern.</p>

11

<p>my school is just really intense in marching band.. so we get varsity letters from it..heh</p>

12

<p>I wouldn't recommend putting down any ECs that you did not really do. Those things have a way of coming back to haunt a person. I think the OP has enough great ECs and good grades and stuff to get into the College of Arts and Sciences, so why say you did something you didn't do?</p>

13

<p>HQ? What the hell. </p>

<p>We've gone over this before and you're getting in. And then going to London sophomore year. ;D</p>

14

<p>Haha my stats, except for my SATs which were a little bit higher i think, weren't even as good as those and I got in RD. I think you'll be in almost definitely ED.</p>

15

<p>just got my october score =]]</p>

<p>1380/2050 yay the exact score I wanted.</p>

16

<p>bummppp?</p>

<p>10 char</p>

17

<p>dude relax...... you are good. not too long before ED decisions come out.</p>

18

<p>yea -_-;; i was relaxed.. but after i submitted my app. I'm getting worried.</p>

19

<p>at least you were able to apply early decision though.</p>

<p>im in a family that doesn't make enough to be able to pay for NYU but makes too much to get financial aid......... so ED was out of the question. =/</p>
