I’m trying to decide between applying to Stern or CAS. I’m aware that Stern is comparatively more difficult to gain admissions into, and an internal transfer from CAS to Stern is highly unlikely. I appreciate NYU as a whole, and I know the Econ program is one of the best in the nation, but I’m afraid that immediate job prospects upon graduation may be overshadowed by Stern students.

In any case, here are my stats. Chance me for both Stern and CAS:

Top ranked New England prep school
92% UW GPA, ‘Most Rigorous’ Schedule (6-8 APs + many Honors courses by graduation)
2160 SAT (700 CR, 730 M, 730 W)
SAT Subject Tests: 740 Math II, 730 French with Listening, 620 US History
AP Exams: English Language (4), U.S. History (4), French (4)
