<p>I belive that you have a pretty good chance. Your grades and you act scores are good. Your satII is a bit low. You probably hav a 70% chances.</p>

<p>The only ‘flaws’ in your application I see are the physics SAT and your EC’s… Otherwise, you seem like a good candidate… I’d say you still have a shot. :slight_smile: </p>

<p>Good luck</p>

<p>As before I say you have about an average chance, like Cornell is a target school. Definitely not 70% Cornell engineering for males is insanely competitive and you don’t have anything that really stands out although your research paper could be a significant boost depending on how they take it.good luck!</p>
