Nope, you can't place out of calc anymore, but I don't know about micro. If both aren't accepted anymore, I would tell you to take micro as soon as possible and math if you need to take calc I, since those are probably prereqs for a lot of classes. And yes, natsci = natural science. I would recommend Plato to Pluto; it's a pretty easy natsci class :)</p>
<p>yeah, i'll make sure i have micro and calc covered first semester. Is calc I- Algebra and Calculus w/ Application to Business and Economics? I think this is the required calc course. How was Stat and Con West? you took a pretty heavy course load. thanks again for your responses, really appreciate it. oh yeah, what did you do in Comp. based?</p>
<p>youkosiren...do you have any part-time job and what is it? Any intern work for freshmen, sophomore and junior during summer, easy to find the intern especially for a Canadian student? are the intern related with i-bank or consulting firm...what is the percent of the class able to find a related intern?</p>
<p>legionaire: I think the class of 2010 actually has to take Calc I, not the Algebra & Calculus w/ App whatever, but don't quote me on that. I took ConWest: Iliad to Star Wars, which may have been a one-off class - it was pretty awesome, I have to say, but I've heard that other ConWests can be bad depending on the prof. Expect lots of reading. Stats was ok; it's not too hard. They've redesigned the Compbased curriculum, I believe, but again, it wasn't too hard because they sort of start out on the basis that you have very very rudimentary computer skills.</p>

Yeah, I have a part-time job as an office assistant for a financial planner right now, and I'm going to be doing a summer internship. Most formal internship opportunities for finance/accounting firms are for the summer after junior year, but there are some sophomore programs. However, you can always get just a regular part-time job fairly easily. I'm not sure about the specific situation for Canadian students, since it depends on the whole visa/work problem, but I know intl students from Hong Kong and Thailand with summer internships, so I don't think it's too difficult.</p>
<p>I applied to CAS because I pretty much didn't know what I want to do. Now, I'm pretty interested in business. Though I've heard that it's impossible, I'm still going to try to transfer to Stern my Sophomore year. However, I don't know if my CAS credts will be transferable to Stern (assuming that I get in). Do you know if CAS calc is the same as Stern Calc etc. or do I have to retake everything over again once I'm in Stern? Thanks.</p>
<p>do u think it is possible for someone or do you know someone that has scored around a 12-1300 on SAT out of 2400</p>
<p>Wow, resurrected... </p>
<p>Calc I in CAS is the same as what's required for Stern, so that should be fine. All your CAS credits are transferable, but most of them will probably count for elective credits, that's all. Don't get too discouraged; while it's not easy to transfer into Stern, I definitely know multiple people who have done so.</p>
<p>ymvc15: possible to do what? Get into Stern? It's probably going to be difficult, but if there are extenuating circumstances or if the rest of the application is absolutely stellar, I think there's still a chance.</p>
<p>how is the entertainment concentration you can tag onto your specialization in stern? would you say its probably the best entertainment business you can get in the country considering the location and the business school? will it be helpful to become an entertainment lawyer?</p>
<p>1.Are there any buildings that aren't apart of NYU that are like right in the middle of the square area NYU is on or can you draw a square on a map and all the buildings inside that square are NYU buildings.</p>
<ol>
<li>The dorms have University officials living in them for student safety right? Do they go around monitoring the rooms to make sure weird stuff isn't happening?</li>
</ol>
<p>mm a 1200-1300 out of 2400 on your SAT?</p>
<p>hmm i think you would have an extremely tough time getting into stern unless you have a valid reason for that SAT score. study and retake it ymc?</p>
<p>sratman: I don't know if you can really compare the EMT concentration to anything else - I knew a few people who did it, and they didn't seem to think it was all that great. To quote one of my friends, 'only one class was worth taking'. Of course, if you want to be an entertainment lawyer, it can't hurt, but I think a straight up marketing major would probably be good enough.</p>
<p>seekinghelp: As for (1), no. See for yourself: <a href="http://www.nyu.edu/about/virtual.html%5B/url%5D">http://www.nyu.edu/about/virtual.html</a>. Well, ok, like 2 blocks, but I don't know why it really matters... (2), yes, there is at least one security guard in the lobby 24/7, and there are always RAs and GAs that you can call on. A few of the dorms also have apartments for random NYU administration or faculty. I don't know what you mean by 'weird stuff', but there's usually someone at least on your floor that you can contact if you have any concerns.</p>
<p>well not specifically stern, is it possible to get into any other part of nyu with a 1200-1300 out of 2400 on SAT</p>
<p>It's still not going to be easy - if you look here (<a href="http://www.nyu.edu/ir/cds/cds0607/cdsc.php)%5B/url%5D">http://www.nyu.edu/ir/cds/cds0607/cdsc.php)</a>, 75% of incoming freshmen have a 600 or better on each of the 3 sections of the SAT, or an 1800/2400. While Stern's scores are higher than the rest of NYU, they're not THAT much higher.</p>
<p>im just curious ymvc whats your SAT score breakdown?</p>
<p>from your own personal experience, shld someone in stern try to have a major outside of stern (like CAS) or does it just useless and burdensome?
and also, is it possible for incoming freshmen to get officer positions in Stern's student body?</p>
<p>canadian: </p>
<p>I wouldn't really know, since my class was the last class that couldn't double major in CAS. I think it's definitely worth it if you're interested in another subject, and if I'd had the chance, I probably would have done one. Trust me, a finance/cpa accounting major is probably way more burdensome (in boringness, if not workload) than a Stern/CAS major. </p>
<p>Anyway, I always encourage people to take more of their electives outside Stern because learning how to bake is way cooler than learning the time value of money for the 4th time.</p>
<p>There's always freshman class positions, and you may be able to get some eboard positions, but they'll most likely be of the webmaster or committee member type.</p>
<p>Also, since this thread has been resurrected after a year, quick update on my info to head off any obvious questions: </p>
<p>I...
* just graduated from Stern with a Finance/Intl Business major & math minor
* was a part of Scholars & the honors program (thesis)
* studied abroad at NYU in London
* have worked as an office assistant for a financial planner (soph summer + junior year), summer intern in a large ibank's equity research dept (junior summer), and research assistant at a very small hedge fund [found all but the latter through Career/Interviewnet]
* will be working full-time at a large hedge fund in the fin/ops dept
* have no experience whatsoever with cohorts, the new Scholars program, or pretty much anything implemented for classes after the class of 2007</p>
<p>hey youkosiren, is IB easy to manage in addition to finance? is it beneficial to have IB as a co-major or should i get a cas major like finance?</p>
<p>It was very easy for me - I wanted to take a language anyway, and then I had a random elective in London, so I'd already finished the 2 electives required. IFM doublecounted for the finance major, so the only extra class I really had to take was IBM (which I really enjoyed because I had a good prof & it was basically a strategy class). However, I heard rumors that they weren't going to doublecount classes for IB anymore, so you would want to check about the new requirements.</p>
<p>I don't think IB really adds that much to your resume, and you don't learn very much if you do it the way I did, lol. If you like any of the subjects in CAS, I'd say go ahead and do a major. At least you'll look different on paper from other Stern kids.</p>
<p>I'm not sure if someone asked this, buuut, can you go into NYU undeclared and then transfer to Stern? Or will they not let you do that?</p>
