My SAT is 2010 with a 3.89 GPA unweighted
29 on ACT
680 on US History SAT II
670 on Literature SAT II
class rank 70 out of 466
ap scholar with honor (5 on APUSH, 4 on Psychology, World History, and English Language)

extra curriculars:
national thespian society co-president
french club
french honor society
national honor society
cappies
Community Service-400+ hours
Operation Smile Publicity Officer
Teens Against Tobacco Use
Students Against Destructive Decisions
Theater Productions (including school at professional theater)

well from what i’ve heard to make sure it’s 50/50- Tisch picks the people they want without looking at academics, and they forward them over to NYU admissions; NYU admissions then picks the people who are academically suited to the school and then they negotiate.

But you never know- you could’ve had wonderful essays and a wonderful audition and you do have a good GPA & extra curriculars- so it’s not like they rule you out if your SAT is on the low end. But thats why it’s so hard to chance in general, but especially when it comes to Tisch I think.
I wish us both the best of luck!!
