I am one of "those students".. who horribly regrets slacking off in high school and not focusing on academics at all.

<p>you have a decent chance...NYU is one of those schools that look at applicants hollistically. They want to see what you can contribute to their community. So yeah, Good luck!!!</p>

<p>Try applying early decision. That might help a bit.</p>

<p>True that, applying early decision is something you should do if you want to go to NYU that much. I think you have a great chance. See if you can get better grades.</p>

<p>The one thing colleges love to see is a student whose continues to challenge himself/herself and improves with that challenge. If you do that, it will be impressive to any school. Best of luck.</p>
