<p>Somebody please chance me</p>

3

<p>with SAT 1850
University of San Diego: Match
University of San Francisco: Match
NYU: Reach
University of Washington: reach</p>

<p>with SAT 2000
same</p>

4

<p>University of Washington not Washington University is a reach?</p>

5

<p>uSD- match
Usan fran- match
NYU- better chance than you think
U WAsh- high match if out of state</p>

6

<p>Man…I’m out of state:(
What do I need on the SAT next time to make the first 2 low matches and university of Washington a match?</p>

7

<p>I disagree with what some others said
Assuming you’re catholic and get at least 2000, especially since you’re black I would say…
USF- safety
USD- low match/safety
UDub- I dont really know about but looking at my schools naviance (private catholic school in CA) I would say match.
NYU- high match</p>

8

<p>Yes I’m Catholic
And what are my chances with my current scores?</p>

<p>I don’t know enough about these colleges to judge. I only know NYU. </p>

<p>I think you’re main problem is your extracurriculars. I don’t see anything too bad with your GPA. Your SAT right now is low, but like you said, it’ll be 2000. Your ECs need to have more leadership, and not just clubs you joined as an upperclassmen. Use your essays well.</p>

<p>NYU might be low reach.</p>

10

<p>I thought that coaching a baseball team would count as leadership</p>

11

<p>Any more??</p>

12

<p>Bumping this</p>

13

<p>Your GPA is quite good (assuming your cumulative UWGPA is 3.91). Your SAT scores however a bit low. </p>

<p>NYU is likely a low reach for you due to your SAT score falling below the bottom 25% and NYU is primarily a stat-driven admissions process.</p>

14

<p>What if I get a 2000?</p>

15

<p>Bump…</p>

16

<p>if you get a 2000 on the SAT you’d probably get into NYU. chance me back</p>

17

<p>How about the other schools?</p>

18

<p>Match for University of San Diego and University of San Francisco for sure. I don’t know the other schools well enough but NYU as of now is a reach. Keep working at it though.
Because you’re a minority and your intership, I think you’re in good shape over all!
ECs could use a bit more work and a 2000 would help a lot!
Thanks for chancing me! c:</p>

<p>What else do I need in my ECs to make them stronger?
and no problem!</p>
