don't listen to everything you see on WSO. stern is a great school, and you will def have some great opportunities

congrats on your acceptance and enjoy!

 

1580/1600 SAT    GPA my school does it out of 100; 99/100    Extracirrucluars: Too lazy to list them all out, but they were all top-notch. Some key things would be quarterfinalist in international high school business pitching comp; Quantum computing research work with MIT students; Multiple state championships in finance; tennis city champ; Pitched business case challenges to executives of major companies and won two. Then a few other ones, including some internships.

Edit: why did u ask this question at 4 am. if ur international, ignore this edit.
