<p>of course you have a chance. the rank is relatively low, which may be OK b/c you have 4.0 or it may not be OK b/c you didn't take enough hard classes.</p>
<p>Other than that, you have a lottery ticket and best of luck to you. I think all are reaches (it is the Ivy League after all), but Cornell is definitely your best bet.</p>
<p>I took the hardest classes that i could while still taking band, if that helps any. my school doesnt offer many APs</p>
<p>you definitely have a chance. what do you wnat to major in ? In regards to the ivies, do you plan on applying only to the colleges or specific schools ( ex wharton at penn)? I think cornell is where you have the highes chance of getting in. I really don't think you low class rank wioll affect that much, I mean you have 4.0, adcoms will see you were in a highly competitive evironment.</p>
<p>I plan to major in Physics or maybe Bio, so im applying to CAS at cornell</p>
<p>I think you have a very good shot at getting in to cornell, good luck</p>
