NYU ED I: How much can ED increase your chances?

<p>To build on, I was thinking of applying to NYU CAS.</p>

<p>My ECs, in detail, are:

  • Student Council (2 years, on Student Body this year)
  • Global Studies (2 years, secretary)
  • Key Club (4 years)
  • National Honors Society (3 years)
  • Student Ambassadors (1 year)
  • Rotary’s InterAct (2 years)
  • Recycling Club (1 year)
  • Debate Club (2 years)
  • Learning For Life (2 years) </p>

<p>I’ll be taking the ACTs in Sept and I’m aiming for a 28~32.</p>

<p>I wanna know if I should bother with it because although my scores aren’t good, I will be polishing up my essays in return. But I wanted to know if I even should waste my and my teacher’s time with the essays if I barely have a shot.</p>
