Do I chance more at NYU CAS or Stern (business)?

Chance Me / Match Me!

<p>My cumulative unweighted GPA is 3.95 for my Freshman and Sophomore year.</p>

<p>I am currently a Junior, and my first quarter grades were all As, so I am CURRENTLY averaging an unweighted 4.0 (hopefully I keep this up the whole year!).</p>

<p>I have taken 3 Honors classes Freshman year, 3 Honors classes Sophomore year, and 1 Honors class Junior year. My school offers only one Honors class in Junior year and two AP courses. I was too late to sign up for AP courses this year but my counselor told me I have definitely proven myself in getting more involved in my community and taking on leadership roles (I know this doesn't make up for my lack of AP classes, but I WILL be taking BOTH AP classes offered Senior year!).</p>

<p>I will be taking my SATs for the first time this January (2014). I have taken practice tests on CollegeBoard and also in the blue book and have received (my highest out of all the practice tests I have taken) a score of 650 CR, 650 Math, and 700 Writing (estimated score of: 2000). Will post again once I get my SAT results after my January test.</p>

<p>MY PLANNED AP SCHEDULE FOR NEXT YEAR:
1. AP Calculus
2. AP Literature and Composition
3. AP Government
4. Accounting
5. Physics</p>

<p>My extracurriculars (first 3 are leadership positions) include:
1. Founder and President of Future Business Leaders of America
2. Secretary (and future President - just voted for recently!) of Future Educators of America
3. Vice President of Finance of a Junior Achievement student-made company
4. Member of various clubs, such as: Soroptimist Club, Green Club, Interact Club, and Filipino Club
5. Earth Team volunteer</p>

<p>My community service includes:
1. Annual tree-planting and beach cleanup events
2. Over 250 hours done at retirement homes, American Red Cross, environmental protection agencies, and church
3. Volunteer at Earth Team</p>

<p>Which one do I chance more at? I really want to apply to Stern but I do not want to be rejected to NYU... I really like NYU, so I might choose the CAS route if my stats are not good enough, and just not apply to Stern at all, and hopefully internally transfer.</p>

<p>Grades and EC’s look competitive for stern even though they don’t care tooo much about grades; sat scores are way too low, most people need a 2200+ to get in. if you do get around there, you may as well apply to wharton upenn with your gpa becuase they emphasize a lot on that</p>
