<p>i feel your pain, chinese, only 1400 after 3 attempts, i was so mad, smacked my dog silly the day i saw my score (i know i should have smacked myself). so yeah, we are disgrace.
anyway, i am applying to rutger too.
i’d say u’d get into all those schools
and relax, i think you are much better than me
you in korea getting 570 is nothing to be ashamed of.
i have been in canada over 5 years, and only got 600v.</p>

<p>haha yea… hope schools would pity us</p>

4

<p>help guys… i need you people</p>

5

<p>you are far from being a failure. think of yourself as an underachiever :)</p>

6

<p>Only a 1400? Someone is picky. I know it might be below you, but it’s an excellent grade. 1300 is a nice score as well.</p>

<p>NYU is a highly competitive and a great university. You fit into their average SAT range. It certainly isn’t impossible. I’d say you have a decent chance. Certainly not 100% though. NYU is an elite school.</p>

7

<p>i just chose to be an underachiever to balance out all my other elite characteristics</p>

8

<p>I think you have a decent chance. And you’re not a failure as a Korean for not having uber high SAT scores. I know Koreans with MUCH lower scores than you, and they try hard, too!</p>

9

<p>im north korean though.</p>

10

<p>hey newby…at least you only smacked your dog instead of eating it …na…j/k…don’t tweak…my asian friends are always ****y about dog eating jokes (though i’m unsure why…they admit some do/did it)</p>

11

<p>whoa…i didn’t kno CC had an auto edit feature on…i meant p.i.s.s.y (w/o periods of course) not ****y</p>

12

<p>actually left… i didnt smack my dog. I skinned it with a butcher knife and ate the tender meat of the breast and legs of it. It was a healthy 1 year old german shepherd… taste was exquisite.</p>

<p>any way… i think we re digressing the topic onto my daily dinner. How about my acceptance to nyu</p>

13

<p>yea. im an indian failure…i only got a 1370, but im still happy with my score, so you should be happy with what you got!</p>

<p>and i think that you are pretty much in at NYU, so good job and good luck (incase you need it)</p>

14

<p>bumpgggggggg</p>

15

<p>Don’t worry.</p>

<p>I live in Asia, and most of the Koreans I know have scores in the same range as yours, and they’re all fluent in English; I attend international school. I think you have a good chance at all the schools you’re applying to. NYU may be tough, but applying ED should help you. I hope you get in. :)</p>

16

<p>Maybe you can stress the lack of college prep in your locale to take stink off local verbal score. I mean you are still living in N. Korea, right ?</p>

17

<p>I would <em>SERIOUSLY</em> doubt that.</p>

18

<p>Are you really in N. Korea ??? Is internet available???</p>

19

<p>

</p>

<p>Not only are there no Asian sprinters in the top 15, there’s no one from New Jersey.</p>

<p>EDIT: Sorry, I misread. I thought you said COUNTRY, you said COUNTY.</p>

<p>OMG newboy u smacked ur dog?! that is so mean</p>
