Hi so I am sort of undecided between the two and I wanted to know what the CC community has to say about my chances.
If I apply to Stern, I am interested in majoring in Marketing and International Business, and if I apply to CAS, I am interested in majoring in Psychology and International Relations.

SAT: 2190 (one sitting) CR: 730 M: 660 M W: 800

GPA: 3.6 UW/ 4.4 W Junior Year
(the only GPA that will show up on my transcript is my junior year weighted GPA, although my grades from Freshman/sophomore year will also be there)

SAT II: Lit: 660, but I retook it in December and also took Math I (I will only send if these scores are good)

AP: Psych (5), English Lang (5), Macro (4), Euro (4)
Senior Year: 5 APs

Recommendations: AP English Lang teacher, Japanese teacher, Piano teacher. Also a reference letter from a summer internship.
