<p>oh that's cool, you went to NYU STEP. i did STEP for three years (8-10) and am about to enter Cornell University this fall as a freshman. </p>

<p>I hope you get that 33 or something around it on the ACT, but you still stand a fair chance of being accepted into CAS--you seem like a well-rounded student wish you the best.</p>

<p>If you do get what you estimated on the ACT you would definitely have improved chances. Work hard on that ACT and best of luck!</p>
