<p>Thank you guys for reading my long and grueling Resume of sorts, and here are the Business Schools I am interested in: ( oh, and I was raised in Brooklyn for around 5 years after I was born upstate, so I am a city person mostly.) Thank you!!! </p>

<p>Do you guys think I can get a scholarship also? If so, how much will they give me? I know they are pretty stingy with Financial Aid as I have heard, oh and I Already previously posted my resume, but I just want to really reassure myself of my chances! I am going crazyyyyyyyyyyyyy about whether I will get in or not! It is really itching under my skin!</p>

<p>you have a pretty decent shot of getting in... if ur doing ED i think you will</p>

<p>Credentials are there. Id say yesm definately however Stern is very unpredictable. Im NYU ED as well can you chance me, i posted yesterday.</p>

<p>Your grades and scores seem average for Stern applicants, and if your essay is that good and if your recs are as good as you make them out to be, then I'd say you'll get in. Your ECs are also pretty decent. Good luck!</p>

<p>Yeah Stern in unpredictable! I am going crazy ahhh! Keep it coming!</p>

<p>you're right in the range. so I'd say about 80% chance. good luck</p>
