Applied Economics and Management

<p>Cornell's Applied Economics and Management (AEM) has everything I am looking for. It is the culmination of a beautiful campus and the education that draws me to Cornell. Here are my stats:</p>

<p>GPA- 3.92 (unweighted)</p>

<p>Ranked- 8 out of 1473; 99%tile</p>

<p>SAT- Math: 710 Critical Reading: 620 Writing: 680 = 2010/2400 (1330/1600)</p>

<p>SAT Subject Tests- Math Level 1: 710 Chemistry: 750 Biology: 670</p>

<p>APs (so far)- Biology:5 Chemistry:expecting a 4 or 5 US History:expecting a 2 or 3</p>

<p>Classes- These are the APs I either have taken or will be taking senior year: Biology, Chemistry, Physics, US History, US Government (Political Science), English. For senior year math I will be taking Regular Calculus.</p>

<p>EC- Hundreds of hours of volunteer work; a number of awards including placement in citywide (NYC) and statewide science olympics, science and history fairs, perfect attendance for 7 years; during the summer I have been doing scientific research as part of a program through the local college; I am a paper boy; I hold office in a number of clubs and organizations including the Italian American Culture Club and National Honor Society. I also was the overall director in the biggest student run production (led over 300 students to produce a play). </p>

<p>I was planning to apply Early Decision to the AEM program.</p>

<p>How are my chances of the AEM program? Is there anything else I should do/change/add on to?</p>

<p>Please be brutally honest. Thanks for all of you input.</p>

<p>what school do you go to???????????????</p>

<p>Ranked- 8 out of 1473!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!??????????????????????????????????????</p>

<p>My school is huge, one of the largest in NY State! There are about 5000 students within the whole school.</p>

<p>Hey, i am an AEM major, your rank is fantastic, if you could pull your SATs up just a little more that would be huge. AEM is the most competitive major at Cornell to get into as it was just established two years ago as an accredited business school. I think you have a good shot as of now, but just try and get those SATs up a little</p>

<p>professors are saying AEM should be a top 8 b-school within three years</p>

<p>SAT scores are certainly below average though .try and get them to a 1400 and u shoudl be good</p>

<p>Sports--
I know my SAT scores are low but I am hoping that my high average and rank will make up for the scores being below average.
What were your stats compared to mine?</p>

<p>I was valedictorian and had a 1440 SAT score, but I think your averag is incredible and I think that they may overlook your scores because of your average - definitely go early and I think you have a great shot -</p>

<p>I think that for this program they will have a hard time overlooking the math scores, especially since the SATII is mathI. This is a program super heavy on math. I would really focus on raising the SATI math score and preparing for the IIC to have a much stronger shot.</p>

<p>My math scores werent that bad.... i was in the 95%tile... if anything it would be my verbal score i would think</p>

<p>The kids at ivies tend to be in the top 2%.</p>
