What are my chances?

I just took the DAT yesterday and am FINALLY getting to my application. I was wondering how my chances are because I don't want to waste too much effort/money.

Cum GPA: 3.44
Sci. GPA: 3.18

AA/22, TS/22, PAT/23

I won't be able to submit my application until I write my PS, which is pretty much nonexistent. I will submit it about...1 week from now. Will I make it?!

I think your other stats definitely push you in a positive direction, even with the grades. =)

I hope you're right!

I have very similar stats to the OP, just slightly higher GPA/sGPA and a slighyly lower DAT.

I feel like there's so many people with stats like mine that I might just not make it. 🙁 Ahh, I guess it's still too early to be worrying about this. I'm going to write my ps sooooon....

why not buffalo? (assuming ur from nyc)

I'm not seriously considering Buffalo because of the location (so far from nyc). From what i've heard from people who go to Buffalo for undergrad, it seems like there isn't much around the school. And it's almost always cold. After living in NYC for 9 years, I don't think I can go somewhere so ... out there. I need people, noise and diversity in my life. School environment-wise, I actually think NYU would be the best fit, but its costs kind of push me away. I go to school in Manhattan now, so I would virtually need no transition to go any of the three around the area (columbia, NYU, and umdnj).
