<p>I think it might depend on the individual college/school. Take CoE for example. I doubt that the stats for the admitted students would be that much higher than those of enrolled students, since the 75th percentile for math is already 800 (The only way for the stats to go up is if the standard deviation goes down). But if we look at the stats of some of the contract colleges, then we can see that there is definitely room for improvement. I doubt that the caliber of students accepted at CALS or ILR is that much lower than that of CAS or CoE (I could be wrong here) so if assuming that they are comparable, then the stats of the admitted students could be much higher for the contract colleges, possibly 30-40 points in each section on average.</p>

<p>*By the way, I'm just speculating here, so don't quote me on any of this. But based on the statistics, I think it's a somewhat reasonable assumption.</p>

<p>Ugh I don't even want to think about it. I'm actually in love with Cornell and I need to go there, but there's nothing I can do now to help my chances. I'm just hoping that being a female applicant to engineering helps, especially after having gone to their Women in Engineering Day.</p>

<p>Statistically, being a female applicant to CoE works in your favor, especially if you compare the overall acceptance rates for male and female applicants to engineering last year.</p>

<p>Male: 4600 applied, 1240 accepted = 26.96% acceptance rate
Female: 1399 applied, 613 accepted = 43.82% acceptance rate</p>

<p>thanks kentric. it's just a waiting game now.</p>
