<p>I've heard that admission into NYU guarantees admission into Stern. Is this true, and if it is, how does that work?</p>

<p>I think NYU is realistic for you but don't count on Stern unless you raise your SAT scores. And getting into NYU does not guarantee acceptance into Stern, you have to apply to Stern directly and be accepted.</p>

<p>what would you be majoring in, just curious</p>

<p>thats great news, mattistotle. collegehopeful99 you're golden, HAH, mattistotle knows his NYU!!!</p>

<p>Just for your information...you don't get to "choose" which SAT II scores (or any scores for that matter) that ETS sends to the colleges. When you tell them to send your scores to colleges they send ALL of them.</p>

<p>At this point, I'm not sure. It will either be marketing (if I get into a b-school) or psychology--maybe economics. Consumer psychology is my thing. I just want to put myself in the best position to get into Ross/Wharton for my MBA.</p>

<p>What gpa would you need for the school of arts and sciences after attending cuny queens college for one year? If you go to Queens for one year and do very well there do they not look at your gpa from high school and put very little emphasis on your sat scores? Any honest imputs would be appreciated Thank You</p>

<p>College work definitely has clout, they can see that you can handle the college work. I am not sure whether you should do just one year, or finish the two year program, check w/ NYU to make sure you are optimizing the amount of credits they will take.. Good luck,</p>
