Not sure what the last person was talking about, but if you look up the stats, NYU is now harder to get into than any of the schools you mentioned besides Columbia, which today is about even.
Main thing, you'll need about or close to a 4.0 GPA if you attend a public high school. You should score in the top 10% on your SATs and have lots of AP classes. Volunteer work will help a lot with NYU and Berkley.
My top choices out of those schools would be NYU and Berkeley. Good luck!

There's no set requirements but for those schools, you have to be exceptional because they're very competitive. I'd say an average would be in the mid to high 90s, a full load of AP classes, SATs in the 1200s or higher, and a lot of extracurriculars. NYU is easier to get into that the other 3 you mentioned but it's still very competitive. I'd look at princetonreview.com or something like that to see the average GPA and SAT scores of entering freshmen. And remember, these are averages so some people got higher scores and some people got lower.
