<p>I think you have a definite shot, especially with Stern, due to your high math scores.</p>

<p>NE 1 else?</p>

<p>Does applying to a top major (Finance - #2 in the country) affect my chances? </p>

<p>Does it help that I have international work experience to supplement my choice to major in International Business (also #2) or do they just care about what you did, specifically, when you were working?</p>
