<p>Hi, I've been reading the posts, but this is my 1st post at CC:)
I was wondering about the difficulty of getting into Stern...
Is it more difficult to get into Stern than to the College of A and S at NYU?
For example, if you had a SAT score of >2100, would you have a decent chance?
Or, is it a crapshoot like at the ivies..
I was really confused, so it would be great if someone could give me advice!
Thanks*</p>
<p>Stern takes about 20% of applicants. It is the hardest of the NYU schools to get into. A >2100 is not a guarantee, but you have a decent chance. You should still apply. If you really want to go, do ED.</p>
<p>Thanks!
I never knew that Stern was that competitive...
Do you know if it's better to have both math and science SAT IIs, or would only math be fine?</p>
<p>They don't require SAT II's, but they "like" to see 3, one of which has to be writing. </p>
<p>The thing is, I don't know if this is true now that there is the new SAT. But this was their policy when I applied. Of course if you're good at a science, why not take the SAT II?</p>
<p>I always thought that tisch was the hardest school to get into at NYU.</p>
<p>tisch is half performance half academics...and different majors have much different acceptance rate. Acceptance rate wise some majors are harder to get into than stern. Grade/SAT wise Stern is the hardest.</p>
<p>I guess I should take a science one as well as a math one..
But, although I'm fairly good at Physics (I have an A in Honors Physics in a Private school), my school doesn't offer AP Physics to juniors, so I didn't take AP this year.. (I'm taking AP physics C next year)
I'm worried that I won't do well on the SATII because we didn't cover thermodynamics and all that stuff:(
What do you guys think??</p>
<p>Argh... I never thought Stern was the hardest to get in Grade/SAT wise..
Do they offer SAT stats for particular schools with in NYU? (not just the general SAT avg. for NYU)</p>
<p>It's said that Stern has around a 1420 average old SAT I. You can consider Stern as around 2nd after Wharton. It is a very prestigious business program.</p>
<p>rofl 1420...</p>
<p>i'm bringing down the average with my 1360 hehe</p>
<p>So, 1420 would be about 710 per section?
Ahhh that's about 2130+ for the new SAT..
lol hhhuang, are you going to be a freshman next year at stern?</p>
<p>Would a 3.95 GPA and a 2100 SAT score be good enough for Stern (ED)?</p>
<p>i'd say, take the sat once more...
but its hard to say bc extra curriculars etc are VERY important</p>
