I am pretty sure i am in the top 10 percent of my school.

<p>I occasionally made the honor roll due to my spanish grades which were in the low 80s.</p>

<p>I have about 150 hours of community service</p>

<p>By the way i am chinese and able to speak it fluently</p>

<p>i have bad interviewing skills because i get too nervous
familly background
both my parents have either a M.D. or a masters

<p>Do colleges look at familly background. i know tat they have pages for you to fill on ur parents but do they look at it. i just left some stuff just in case.
Do you thnk i can get into stern
should i look into other schools
should i look into a school i can also go directly into a mba program?</p>

<p>please respond</p>

<p>You should get into NYU (Stern) with those stats. Other great finance schools to consider would be Wharton (UPenn), MIT, Emory, Virginia, Michigan, Notre Dame, Texas, Indiana, North Carolina, USC, UC Berkeley, and Cornell. Some of these are easy to get into, most are fairly difficult, but all these schools rank in the top 13 or 14 in the country for finance.</p>

<p>I have like 80s in some marking periods and also 70s for some final exam grades and for like terra novas and stuff like that i pretty much bombed it on purpose since i didnt feel like taking it. College wont look at that right?</p>
