<p>REC’s good…
essay pretty good…</p>

<p>I know my sat 1 score and extracurricular activities are weak… but please chance me…</p>

2

<p>kinda low SATs…i’d say your chances of getting in are directly linked to how well you convince the adcoms through your essays that they have to have you on campus</p>

3

<p>your test scores are low… I’d say you have a slight chance of getting in.</p>

4

<p>His SAT score isn’t hurting his chance that bad, but being an international student desiring for aid is hurting his chance.</p>

5

<p>i dont think hez international…he may be a citizen of another country but he might still have a greencard…he doesnt mention hez applying for financial aid…besides, NYU doesnt even offer aid to internationals</p>

6

<p>i have citizenship of south korea, and i’m in states with visa (E-2)
and i’m not desiring an aid…</p>

<p>still… extremely hard…? please be honest and realistic haha lol u can say its hard for me to get in… i just want to prepare… :)</p>

7

<p>dude, i just got accpted to Stern, im international living in Houston TX…im so elated w000000000t</p>

8

<p>Your GPA might compensate for your low SAT… just wait two more weeks and you’ll find out</p>

9

<p>according to international kids I know, it’s easier for international kids to get into stern. so you have a decent chance despite your scores and extracurrics</p>

<p>qkrdusdn i think you have a good chance and I’m pretty sure that stern didn’t send out all the decisions yet…wait til april 1st… you have a good chance :slight_smile:
I would say your reading is a bit low but i got into stern last week with a 670 on math.</p>

16

<p>gibertarenas with a 2200 you are def getting into stern if you haven’t already</p>

17

<p>yeah, i’m currently at a long Island High school that has pretty good reputation with NYU. As of now, I have a 3.7 GPA, SAT 1’s—Math-660, CR-610, Writing-720. SAT II’s, Math 1- 660, Math 2, 680. My standardized test scores are very bad (i think) but i’m very very active in my high school. I’m the president of medical explorers and jazz band. I’m also in clubs such as world affairs, Tri M music honor society, French Club, and the Future Business Leaders of America Vice President. Also, I’m a 4 year varsity member in Wrestling and Lacrosse, I’m a 2 time all county wrestler, and an all county saxophone player. Would my extra curriculars compensate for my crappy SAT scores. Please get back soon.</p>
