<p>I like that you’re making an effort with the admissions counselor, I think that shows determination and a go getter attitude. </p>
<p>I’m not too sure of NYU’s standards, but according to what you said it looks like you’re in a pretty good place. </p>
<p>Pretty sure you’ll be able to send those October ACT scores but double check on the admissions section of the website they should have the latest accepted dates for the standardized tests. I suggest doing lots of practice on your weakest sections in an ACT prep book, doing 1 section at a time rather than a full practice test. Easier to focus that way, maybe do one full length test leading up to the date. Helped me get my 34 
Try to get another point or two, but if not really try to make up for it with outstanding essays! I think people really underestimate a good essay. </p>
<p>Finish up your senior year with good grades, dont slack off, and make sure your essays are perfect! Show them to as many people as possible. Definitely try to show your enthusiasm for the school, especially if you’re applying ED. </p>
<p>Good luck, I’m in the same boat! Can’t wait till it’s all over haha</p>
