Chances.....

Asian female, moved to US during 6th grade. Lives in Kentucky.

SAT Scores
Math: 700
CR: 600
W:500

Class rank: my school don't do class rank, but I think I'm in the top 10%

EAs:
Japanese Club(9th) Position held: Publicity
Marine Biology Club (9th)
FBLA (10th-12th)
NHS (11th-12th)
Beta Club (11th-12th)
Swim team (10th)
Summer program in UofL (11th).
All County Orchestra (10th)
KMEA Distinguished rating for Violin Solo (9th-11th)
KMEA Distinguished rating for strings quartet (9th-10th)

Volunteer works:
Tutoring (9th-12th)

GPA: around 4.0

Courses:
9th grade: All honors
10th: All honors with one AP course
11th: All IB/AP. (I took mostly IB with one AP course)
12th: All IB/AP. (currently taking mostly IB with one AP course)

I know my CR and W scores are not so good, but I do take a lot of rigorous courses. I'm also thinking about taking the SAT again in Dec. to improve my grades in that two sections, but I think I might have a higher chance of getting in if I apply for early decision. So, should I apply for ED or wait and get a better SAT score and apply for RD?
If I apply for ED what is my chance of getting in?

I really LIKE NEU, especially their co-op program! I think it's really cool that the school allows student to study and work at the same time, because work experiences teach you more about your profession than a text book!

HOPE YOU GUYS CAN HELP ME!!!!

Northeastern is safety for you. You probably have near 5.0 northeastern gpa and the SAT isnt too bad. At least the lower score is the writing portion. Btw, Northeastern has EARLY ACTION not EARLY DECISION. would do early action, but then again this thread was posted on the deadline...

Thank you soooo MUCH for the reply, I didn't apply for early action, like you said, the thread was posted on the deadline. Do you think my chance for NEU is a lot lower now since I can only apply for the regular action?
