My chances of getting into NYU?

Chance Me / Match Me!

<p>I'm a senior this year, and my top choice school is NYU. I'd be an out-of-state student. My GPA is a 3.96, my SAT is on the lower side of the score range (1790), but I'm taking the test again - hopefully I can achieve a higher grade. I sent my SAT Subject Test scores (my U.S. History score was an 800, and Biology E/M was a 660 - not bad for a mid first semester AP Biology student. According to a few college mentors, I wrote a great essay, and I have been involved in several extracurricular activities at my school, while I've really put my energy and dedication into one or two of them. I've got three recommendations from my school counselor and two teachers (my AP biology teacher is one of them, since I want to major in biology). I'm officer liaison (basically, someone who helps out all the other officers) of my school's Interact Club. </p>

<p>Extracurriculars include:
Interact Club
National Honor Society
National Spanish Honor Society
National Science Honor Society
Med Club
Prom Committee</p>

<p>What are my chances of getting accepted? I've heard even high-achieving students sometimes get rejected - in other words, NYU is random when it comes to accepting applicants. I'm about to submit my application (regular decision) and I'm freaking out! I don't want to find a rejection letter in the mail in a few months!</p>
