Which of these programs do you think I'd be admitted to?
Carnegie Mellon University, Columbia University, Cornell University, New York University, Princeton University, Rutgers University, Stanford University, University of California at Berkeley, University of Chicago, University of Michigan, Baruch College, Boston University, Georgia Institute of Technology, Oxford, and the University of Toronto
If I applied to all of them, do you think I'd get into at least a few?
Thanks!
You shouldn't limit international programs, including LSE/Oxbridge
What do you think about the University of Amsterdam? I'd love to do a year there because the architecture is amazing in its 'sidwaywardiness'. However, I was thinking that there would be much less job prospect opportunities from there..
I'm sure at least one of them would take you. Your GRE score is good and as long as you noted on your resume 4.0 GPA Junior and Senior year it would make up for the other shitty GPA's. You have good WE too so I have every faith that you can get into at least one.
