<p>hey there friend ;]
lol well first of all you have an awesome chance regardless of what schools you’re applying to and although NYU stern is competitive you have a moderately good chance for it. I’d say in for Emory, Tufts, WashU, George Washington. Columbia might be a reach because well its Columbia lol. Brown might be a match/low reach. and you have awesome ECs =D</p>

<p>ahaha aww thanks!! :)</p>
