<p>apply to CAS, Stern will be amazingly difficult to get into with those stats.</p>

<p>well, i'm not entirely certain since i'm an NYU Steinhardt applicant.</p>

<p>but while i was entertaining the idea of applying to CAS, i saw some info about this. from what i gathered sterns economics is more career-oriented + the stern curve but, that both economics programs are good.</p>

<p>if you're looking to apply to Stern you DEFINITELY need to take the SATs or ACTs again, those scores are well below the schools averages. even for the other schools in NYU your scores are too low. </p>

<p>i think you should post in the NYU forum, you'll get more (and better) help.</p>

<p>^true that, and I think you shoulda written your essay about Bangladesh and stuff instead of econ.</p>

5
