<p>Hey guys! </p>
<p>I will be a senior next year and I plan on applying ED to Cornell. I have wanted to apply to CALS as a bio major for a while now because I want to focus on science but I think that I am rounded in my academics and could also be a good fit for CAS. Will I be a better fit in one college and therefore have a better chance?</p>
<p>My ECs are pretty diverse-</p>
<p>Interning/Volunteering at a biology lab doing research on genetics in mice -- approx. 200 hrs
Music- Level 9 AIM in piano, saxophone in highest concert band at school (played since 5th grade)
Scouting- Silver Palm Eagle Scout; in charge of my local chapter for Order of the Arrow.
Eagle scout project- approx. 150 hrs, trail repairing in a local canyon
Volunteering hours- approx. 150- 200
NHS officer
High school swim team from 10th and 11th, will swim again this year.
Water polo 10th </p>
<p>General stats</p>
<p>4.0 Unweighted, rigorous schedule
SAT- 2200, 1480 math and reading; 1 time, will retake
SATII- 800 Math 2, 780 Bio Molecular
APs- 10th grade --5 AB calc subscore, 5 BC calc, 5 American,
11th- 5 Euro, 5 Stats, 5 Bio, 4 English Lit,
National Merit semifinalist- 221</p>
<p>Also IB diploma candidate- two 6's in SL tests (Spanish, Music)</p>
<p>So basically, would CALS reject me for not being focused on life sciences enough? I also have no experience with agriculture whatsoever...</p>
<p>Any input would be appreciated!</p>
