Do you think it’s possible to get into NYU with a 1250 SAT, 4.4 gpa, good essay and good extracurriculars? Or would it be better to not send the SAT score the NYU because they are a test optional school?
I got 1240 and didn’t send.
If you don’t mind me asking, did you get in to NYU?
Still waiting for results 
I submitted my IB score instead, which was 38/45
Good luck!
I’m a current undergrad at NYU. In my experience a 1250 might be a little low but not that far off that you should be discouraged.
Have you heard of Bolt? It’s an SAT prep class online that got started from research at NYU. You might want to check it out. https://www.learnwithbolt.com/
