<p>Probably a good chance for Emory and Cornell. CMU seems to be difficult for anyone, even with good credentials, same with Duke for that matter. As far as NYU Stern, decent chance based purely on your numbers. Your ECs are good for that as well, however as good as your business ECs are they usually like to see a lot of them. </p>

<p>To sum it up:
Good chance: Emory, Cornell
Decent Chance: NYU Stern, CMU
Reach: Duke</p>

<p>Best of luck!</p>

<p>The only thing holding you back is your GPA. I’d say you have a fair shot at all of them but Duke may be a reach. Given your high school’s rank, your class rank is pretty good. Your EC’s are the best I’ve seen. Wishing you luck!</p>

<p>I think you’ve got a great chance for all of these schools, though Duke could be considered a reach for everybody.</p>

<p>If you get into and decide to go Stern, let me know!</p>

<p>Thank you all!
Will do @chachachia</p>

<p>It looks like you have a pretty good shot at Emory, NYU, and Carnegie Mellon. Cornell (mainly because they don’t consider SAT writing scores) and Duke might be a little more reaches, but not out of the question by any means!</p>

<p>Thank you collegebound524!</p>

<p>Match - Emory & CMU
Reach - Stern, Duke, Cornell</p>
