So my GPA is extremely low: 2.9 UW, 3.6 W

However, SAT/ACT scores are pretty decent
SAT: 660 writing, 800 math, 710 reading, 2170 superscore
ACT: 35

AP tests:
US history: 3
Chem: 5
Bio: 4
Stat: 5
Calc BC: 5

Subject tests:
Chem: 780
Bio : 750
Math 2: 800

Courseload is pretty decent, Multivariable calculus and AP gov this year, mainly honors last 3 years

EC not much
work (20 hrs/week)
Ultimate Frisbee
Academic Decathlon

My question is whether high standardized test scores would be able to carry my low GPA into schools like NYU?

Rigor shows you’re not lazy. I think what the AdComs would conclude is that you had bad teachers, or something went wrong in the classroom. test scores show you can definitely do the work.

Grinnell might be a match.

When are people going to realize that one test will not make up for four years of work? NYU is a reach.
