<p>@onesmallpenguin people from last year’s ed II did that but i’m still just as confused and anxious haha</p>
<p>@yungmoney</p>
<p>haha its alright, i’m here thinking everything is a omen for my NYU results LOL</p>
<p>I feel like that thread made it seem like the FA change makes a difference. </p>
<p>@siberian, what’s the deal with your friend?</p>
<p>@emily
wow we’re so similar it’s ridiculous… i’m also hoping that experience w/ running my own business will make up for poor grades in classes like ap chem (why did i even take that class???)</p>
<p>@emily i wrote about my aunt in my essay haha, thought i would casually slide it in there. and SAME i thought my essays were so good at first, then i reread them yesterday and now they are just generic and boring 
<em>sob</em> </p>
<p>and yes i am chinese! took 7 years of chinese school unfortunately -____-</p>
<p>@yungmoney don’t worry, i got c+s in honors chem and honors precalc because both those teachers were hard as **** and my precalc teacher gave pop quizzes like everyday. those classes TANKED my gpa</p>
<p>@thebob
okay that’s relieving. i really don’t think we should take anything on albert seriously, lol</p>
<p>@yungmoney
yeah man, we basically have the same GPA/SAT…DUDEEE i suffer in AP/IB BIO. science classes smh. Im a IB diploma candidate and my school only offers like 10 IB classes which totally screwed me up. </p>
<p>btw, this might be inappropriate to ask, but are you asian of any sort? just curious LOL.</p>
<p>@spongebob
LOL “casually slide” awh man, I feel like every aspect of this app is making me crazy.
i wished i could have said more about how i could have contributed to nyu</p>
<p>@emilyy youre also in IB? did u apply with SAT or predicted scores?</p>
<p>Asians unite tonight!? loljk seems like a lot of asians are applying, I’m chinese but born in America. ^^ Don’t stress too hard guys, whatever happens happens.</p>
<p>I feel like that thread made it seem like the FA change makes a difference. does anyone else agree?</p>
<p>@emily
My father is a black african and my mom is a pale-skinned iranian.</p>
<p>do i get diversity points?!</p>
<p>@rocky
it does seem like that. i’m curious to see if anyone who DID get the change end up NOT getting accepted.</p>
<p>@rocky i agree with you, yet the RD thread proved them wrong so idk what to think.</p>
<p>@rclvrr yeah im in IB! I applied with my transcript… my teachers showed me my predicted scores and they were like 30/45 (or 42, whatever the total was)…which basically = failure
and i didn’t take much SAT IIs where I actually got a decent grade.</p>
<p>what about you?</p>
<p>For the FA, I think subconsciously we all believe it will make a change, though we try to convince ourselves otherwise.</p>
<p>@yungmoney
you would definitely get an advantage compared to me (because im asian LOL).
its really annoying because all the Asians have like perfect grade + GPA and when I’m compared with the rest of the asian pool…im like an utter failure.</p>
<p>@emily i applied with my predicted with was a 39/45. i had a 30 on my act but i ddnt want to send that as i thought my predicted was better, but who knows lol.</p>
<p>@businessgeek</p>
<p>did you FA change?</p>
<p>@emily don’t think of yourself that way, lol. Some asians just study their asses off and don’t really know much else (i consider myself like that except with a touch of sports haha) My asian friend went to rutgers year 1 and transferred into Nyu later. Im sure whatever is in the future will be fine.</p>
<p>Edit: And i never realized the FA changed, it’s always been no self service available 2015 yadda yadda since the first time i checked it. :/</p>
<p>How about this LSP change? Do you think that having it. Changed to LSP means you have a good chance if getting in? I can’t find any threads about that from past nyu hopefuls ;0</p>
