and should i do ed or rd because I am getting varied opinions. Some people say that ed is harder because the pool is more competitive but i dont know. So please give your opinion on what i should do and what my chances are
I'm not so sure of your chances, but in regard to ED vs. RD, applying ED is statistically better, with a higher rate of acceptance than applying RD...At least it is that way with most schools...
u will get into stern and georgetown easily, I would aim higher, look at some of the top ivies, they dont place as much emphasis on writing, so that is a very very strong SAT score, and ur GPA is decent, I wouldnt be surprised if u got into one of the top ivies.
You have a decent chance, but you're not "in" as some people here try to raise your hopes too much. Your GPA is very weak for Stern though your SAT is good. EC's decent, but not oustanding
