Hi guys,
I would love to go to Stony Brook or Buffalo for their relatively inexpensive tuition being that they're instate. If not then I'd like to go to NYU at least.
Im currently in CUNY Baruch college. My current overall GPA is 3.4. I have a strong upward trend. My freshman year GPA was 2.7. This was because i took Calculus and got an F, then i retook it and got a D. Ever after those two freshman semesters I've had around 3.7 average every semester, including in all my major (biology/chemistry) courses. My sGPA includes my calculus grades so likely isnt as good as my BCP GPA of probably somewhere around 3.7.
I was secretary of Operation Smile in my school for a semester, then VP this past semester and likely next semester as well.
I was planning on retaking Calculus in another school (since my school wont allow me to retake) and acing it. But, i just today did the cost analysis and it would cost me about $2000 in total savings (i calculated tuition id have to pay plus the loss of Full-Time student status from my school).
Im taking the DAT in February, really going to try hard and am banging out 8 hr+ days.
My questions are: Do you guys think i have a shot at buffalo or Stonybrook?
If not, then do i have a shot at NYU?
Should i shell out the about $2000 to retake Calculus in another school to maybe up my chances?
I'd prefer to get some answers from those who have applied to Buffalo or Stony brook and know some specifics about these schools.
