<p>HotBlack,
When you mentioned that person who had excellent grades but did not get in then, mentioned that NYU might overlook someone with good grades if they have already applied what they have learnt I thought you were referencing this individuals experience. Like perhaps if you have TOO much experience they might reject you. I think i misunderstood.</p>
<p>Would you know why someone with such an excellent record would be rejected?</p>
