<p>thanks for chancing me. </p>

<p>looks like you hvae some solid stats, but unfortunately i am not very familiar with any of the schools you are applying to. however, i am fairly sure you will get into NYU.</p>

<p>bump…</p>

<p>URM + Great stats put you in the running for just about anywhere. You seem to have only one “safety” which is NYU (I’m not familiar with Imperial London). Is there anywhere else that you want to apply?</p>

<p>You’ve got a strong shot at all. Cambridge will be your biggest reach though, international is a tough pool.
Being a URM with your stats is solid. Good luck and I hope you enjoy the ivies!</p>

<p>Possibly Boston Univeristy or MIT.</p>

<p>You’ve got a decent chance everywhere, but your EC’s are a little dry. Of course, your URM status makes everything so much better.</p>

8

<p>bumpity…</p>

<p>ohhh wow. URM + fantastic test score + pretty solid GPA (the 3.6 is a little low, but given all your APs and stuff…it wont matter)
You’ll get into at least half if not more of the schools you mentioned. One thing- Cambridge etc are out of the US, can you afford all of that? I don’t think theres very much aid given in the european schools to US attendants…</p>
