<p>Well on paper, you are a strong candidate! I wish you the best of luck!</p>

3

<p>Thanks! I’m really nervous because I got rejected from Columbia ED a couple days ago so my spirits have been kinda crushed lately. Luckily NYU has ED2 so I still have a good chance. Where are you applying?</p>

4

<p>You’re applying ED2 to NYU? Is that allowed? I got rejected ED by an Ivy a few days back too. I really want NYU but I wasn’t sure if we could apply ED anymore, since I’ve already applied once…</p>

5

<p>Sorry if I’m wrong, but you might want to double check if you’re allowed to ED2 after you’ve EDed to another institution. Since both are on the common app, I’m not sure if that’s really allowed (but then again I might be wrong).</p>

<p>I just checked the Common App agreement, and it seems that as long as you only have ONE ED agreement at a time it’s fine, but you might want to check with NYU’s policy about that.</p>

6

<p>Don’t worry - Columbia is a little random. I know someone who got rejected from Columbia but now goes to Harvard.
Also, you can apply EDII to NYU. Since your EDI didn’t pan out, your EDII option is available for NYU. There are no policies restricting you from applying EDII.</p>

7

<p>yeahh I think you can only have one ED at a time because I can still pull up the ED agreement for NYU even thoguh I already did it with Columbia…or at least I hope so</p>

8

<p>Your ECs are a bit too spread out, try to group them in focus
For Stern, take Maths II instead of Maths I</p>

9

<p>Someone told me that math II is easier to get a higher grade (obviously you have to know the math) because of the curve…is that true? I think they got like a 750 on math II and like 600 something on math I</p>

10

<p>bump…chance me please</p>

11

<p>forgot to mention ED2 BPE program or Finance/Intl Business</p>
