I definitely think you will get into University of Miami, Northeastern and BC. NYU and Northwestern are very competitive schools and difficult to get into if you don’t ED, but I think that the 3 schools I named are all great schools anyways, and you never know. I think you could get into NYU.You have a very good GPA even with your great amount of APS and honors, I ED to University of Miami so please let me know what you think ym chances are!! http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/discussion/comment/21002775#Comment_21002775
