Need Help! Will I still get into CAS Early Decision with my horrible SAT scores?

630 CR
730 M
690 W (NYU's website says they ignore the writing section though)

Total: 2050

I'm really depressed. I never expected a 630 on CR. I got 700+ easily on all of the BB practice tests...

So with that in mind, assuming I have great ECs, good job experiences
a 3.9W GPA and 3.8 UW GPA

720 US History
680 Maths II (Retaking, definitely getting 750+)

5 AP Statistics
4 AP Lang/Comp
4 AP US History

Decent essay, decent supplements
GREAT teacher rec
International Student, No Financial Aid
Nationality: New Zealander (Don't live there though)
CAS, ED

*freaking out*

JW, where does it say they "ignore" the writing section?

You're definitely overreacting. A 1360 SAT is around 60th percentile for NYU. Their range starts in the mid 1200s (although Tisch and Steinhardt probably hurt those scores a bit).

I think it's a match and you will get in. Good luck!
