<p>I think agree with epam about your chances, I’d say even ED it won’t be easy to get in. The first generation definitely helps, but your profile doesn’t tell me that you’re going to grab Columbia by the neck and shake it for all it’s worth. I didn’t notice much leadership or initiative in your ECs. Your academics are below par, 39/45 is not great, top 10% also doesn’t say much because ~95% of seas were in the top 10% and I’d guess 75%-80% were in the top 5% of their high school class. </p>
<p>Also what is your SAT score, the numbers don’t match up.</p>
<p>If you want to apply, you should definitely apply ED, because ED i’d say chances are low (like they are for the average applicant). But RD I’d say chances are really low.</p>
