<p>DId you not take the SAT or did you forget to put them in?</p>

<p>I think the ACT is low, but a 3.6 uw (that would be the equiv of a 90) is a good gpa, especially since you have the “better” APs. </p>

<p>Where in NY?</p>

3

<p>I am from NYC, I am interesting that “where in NY” is important for admissions?</p>

4

<p>Because UMD is very cognizant of the fact that they have an image issue of NJ/NY being their OOS, they are trying to change that image, thus, upstate NY, is a little different.</p>

5

<p>what’s the different between upstate NY and NYC?</p>

6

<p>Live in queens ny so how r my chances</p>

7

<p>Traditionally upstaters consider upstate anything north of Westchester County.</p>

8

<p>Did admission people care you live in queens or mid town Manhattan? I don’t think it has any differnece.</p>

9

<p>NYC is the 5 boroughs…ALBANY/Troy are seen equivalent to New England states…huge difference! NYC and NJ are one pile…upstate NY in another for diversity.</p>

<p>New England states are better?</p>
