If I’m not in a good state (not in reference to residence), what can I improve on?

2

Damn girl it seems like you’ll definitely get in.

3

I’d say bump up the SAT score. Stern really puts a large emphasis on good quantitative abilities… so a math 2 SAT subject test would be helpful as well

4

You have a good shot, just as you are. If you want to improve anything, focus in on the quant skills, as Dlo_99 suggested, as they are important to Stern. But I think you have a good shot now.

5

Nice job, is definitely competitive and probably accepted, but demonstrate quantitative abilities in order to get into stern

International Relations is a CAS major, not Stern by the way
