Your stats are excellent, so I can’t imagine you wouldn’t get in… but you probably should find something more that you can put on your application for ECs. Even if you just volunteer for an hour or two a week, it’s something. Especially for schools like NYU and michigan, lack of ECs could really hurt you.

I can’t really comment on class rigor because I’m a science major, and I’m biased into thinking that we’re the only people who do real work. My roommate is business (supply-chain management) and has less work than I do, but also works very hard and puts a lot of effort into school. She seems pretty able to balance school work with other things–social life, jobs, etc. I’m guessing that with your stats, though, you’ll be able to do very well here.

And ditto to redsox… business majors get awesome co-op jobs, especially kids with good GPA and work experience.
