<p>Your GPA is pretty low for Stern, but hopefully the school difficulty will make up for it. SAT scores will probably be on the lower end of the spectrum, but it depends on how you did in math. From what you listed, I’d say it’s a very low reach.</p>

<p>you should submit your ACT score.</p>

<p>but, overall, your chances aren’t that hot cuz of your gpa.</p>
