Chance Me / Match Me!
1

<p>My school's gpa is out of 100. I have about an 87.5, which is a B+
I have a 28 ACT score
I'm taking 3 SAT 2's in October
I'm applying Early Decision to the college of arts and sciences in NYU
I have 3 letters of recomendation from my teachers, one from my library boss, i'm working on more
i have 3 AP's this year, and 4 AP tests. I had no other previous AP's.
I am writing, what I consider to be, an above average essay.
I'm a few clubs (not entirely consistent), 2 community service programs, and a bunch of summer jobs and regular jobs.
I also live in NY, I'm pretty sure they favor locals so i guess this helps.</p>

<p>I also want to apply to the ag school at Cornell, BU, GWU, Stony brook, Binghamton, and Albany</p>

<p>Which colleges do you think I'll get into, based on this information?</p>

<p>wow, 12 views and no responses</p>

<p>Im similar to you
im going ed to NYU with a 90-91 and a 1320 </p>

<p>i dunno your grades are a little low but so are mine </p>

<p>I hope we get a fair look</p>

<p>this should go in the chances forum. the moderators will probably move it for you.</p>

<p>i think you will get into bu. nyu is probably a high match or a slight reach. cornell is a reach.</p>

5

<p>If you get 1300 (/1600) on SAT, you should be in okay shape for NYU. My friend got in with a 1800 / 2400 and similar GPA.</p>

<p>How can I get to the chance board?</p>

<p>And what does High Match and slight rech mean?</p>

<p>Unless money is a non-issue, I would not recommend applying to ED to NYU. Based on the stats you presented it will not be a matter of whether you will be admitted, but will you be able to afford to attend. </p>

<p>Unless you are HEOP eligible, your stats as well as metalmoses do not put you in the running for $$ at NYU, you could end up having to foot the whole $50k for NYU with little or no financial aid.</p>

<p>so sybbie719, does that mean you think i'll get in?</p>

<p>money is not a problem, my parents are wealthy</p>

9

<p>Wow. An 87.5 for me, is a B. A middle range B, at that. Not fairrr</p>

10

<p>GPA isn't great, and your ACT isn't amazing either</p>

<p>your ECS are weak, you yourelf claiming that youre not consistent in all of them</p>

<p>Cornell: REJECT
The rest are reaches/high matches/unsure</p>
