<p>wat are my chances now</p>

<p>help me out</p>

<p>do you have any leadership? have you started your app yet to cornell, which school do u expect yourself to apply to? do u have sn i can tell u what u need to do</p>

<p>yah man my sn is dayobball6 im me</p>

<p>help me out</p>

<p>Given how desperate the Ivies are for qualified URMs, you are almost a lock at the "lesser" Ivies and a very strong applicant at HYP.</p>

<p>Where do you live?</p>

<p>6 varsity letters? you're impressive.
i hate that ivies want URMs. i really hate it. it makes all the work i've done seem like nothing, and that i only got in because of my race. it really annoys me. but i should probably just be happy i'm going to school. dayobball, you're a strong candidate. either way.</p>

<p>mc u going to cornell? being an urm is just a factor not the detriminate. anyways this is probably the only time in your life being an urm will help you</p>

<p>yeahhhh i'm going to cornell. thanks, i really can't stand it when people make a big deal out of URM stuff. and thank god it'll never help me again! you're going too right?</p>

<p>yes i applied ed to ilr, it will be what u make of your edu and character and how u perserve through obstacles. what school r u going to?</p>

<p>abike...how are you going to help him out? I'm applying as well..but not a URM..actually an ORM - what advice can you give me? I don't have the same stats as him...a lot lower :(.</p>

<p>ok whats your sn?</p>

<p>abike... i'm going to CAS next year, tentatively studying religion. good call, character is ever important. where are you from?</p>

<p>I'm Puerto Rican but I can honestly state that I would have gotten into Cornell if I were a white caucasian. Furthermore, Cornell isn't one of the schools that's really heavy on URM recruitment; it's one of the last factors being weighed at Cornell.</p>
