<p>Dude, your chances aren’t going to differ greatly if at all at the forums you post this on (Columbia, Penn, Brown). Just sayin’.</p>

<p>EDIT: just saw that you’re applying to Cornell, as well. I honestly think that your SAT is high enough there, that you have an excellent chance. It’s slightly less selective than the other schools on your list.</p>

<p>I love cookies!</p>
