<p>NEU is my top choice so im hoping i still have a shot</p>
<p>GPA: 3.26 (my school doesnt give me correct weights though, so i think its around a 3.6 if
NEU recalculates it)</p>
<p>ACT: 26</p>
<p>2 excellent recommendations, and 2 very good ones. (2 were addressed directly to neu saying how its my top choice)</p>
<p>A great essay, that also explains my gpa, but its not a "pity party essay" but rather one that gives a cloud a silver lining (i had a very traumatic soph year with 3 friends deaths, and my best friend was diagnosed with cancer so my gpa is brought down significantly by that year)</p>
<p>amazing ECs and leadership: varsity basketball and volleyball for 4 years and captain of both. president of two organizations, and a member of many clubs, and community service.</p>

<p>I had MUN from 10th to 11th and this year I’m ambassador for it.
I did lots of community service and raised money to send 50 children to school for a whole year, buying supplies and tuition and all.
I won a local news National Film Competition and placed 1st with a 4 minute documentary on the education of poor children. And I live in Pakistan, so I think I’m like one of the only Pakistani kids with a film on their resume.</p>
<p>Does anyone think I can get in Regular Decision? I really want to go to Northeastern, I ED’ed to Carnegie Mellon as a shot in the dark, got rejected but that wasn’t unexpected</p>
<p>I’m in the same boat as you corinneh, well actually I’m slightly worse off, but I believe you have a shot at RD. Northeastern likes people who see them as their top choice and you’re extracurriculars are pretty good</p>
