<p>Recommendation Letters: From two NYU professors</p>

<p>A very proof-read, creative, fresh essay.</p>

<p>But, what I'm MOST worried about are my SAT scores.</p>

<p>They add up to a 1890. I know this is very low. But, someone please make me feel better..what are my chances?</p>

<p>i think ur ecs and course work look good. ur avg might be a little low, they prob have around a 3.5 avg. ur SAT scores are a bit below avg so i think if u brought them up to about a 1950 you would have basically everything you need to get in.</p>

<p>i think if you bring up the sats (2000 might be a good target) you will get in. good luck. i love nyu too. :)</p>

<p>strong - nyu professor recommendations
weak - no leadership roles in ECs, SAT score</p>

<p>I think NYU is either an ALL numbers game or an ALL ecs game</p>

<p>Is money going to be an issue? Given your stats you will probably get very little if any money in terms of scholarship aid</p>
