Hooks- Being one of those female things in engineering, evidently?</p>
<p>I’m sorry chendrix, I didn’t know you were so well informed on the matter. It just seemed logical to me that they’d want to boost that 30% even more, but I suppose I could be wrong.</p>

<p>Looking at other peoples stats, I will obviously be the scum of Engineering. I don’t know why I got a likely.</p>
<p>Cornell is probably contractually bound to only release a certain number of likely letters. I doubt they would be allowed to tell every single female engineering applicant early of their admissions.</p>
<p>You should feel special if you got one of these letters, because they aren’t given willy-nilly.</p>
<p>@themagnum Nooo, don’t say that. I’m sure you will be amazing. Cornell picked you for a reason =)</p>

<p>Let’s hope the Financial Aid is awesome :D</p>
<p>you think people share their stats when they go to college like they do here at CC? this is kinda scary…i’m gonna feel a lot of inferiority if a huge amount of people got the stats like everybody here :(</p>
<p>congrats on those who got the likely letters btw :)</p>
<p>can a male who applied as an AEM major get one?</p>
<p>Ah, I’m somewhat late, but I’m joining the Likely Party: I received a likely from Cornell on the 15th for CAS. After rejections from both MIT and UChicago, this feels good.</p>
<p>@ darkblademaster
do you have any hooks? URM?</p>
<p>No hooks. I’m Asian, needing a lot of financial aid.</p>

Hooks: Well, I’m a south indian male so that doesn’t help. I went to a summer program at Cornell, and I know one of the admissions officers. I dont know if this actually helps or not, but it can’t hurt.</p>
