<p>This is the ivy league...where do u think the people with perfect scores apply? lol. This may not necessarily be his first choice but I'm sure that many of the people w/ perfect scores apply here....</p>
<p>^ It depends where you're from and what you're used to. If you're from New England, the Rockies or the Upper Midwest, it's not that bad. If you're from other regions of the U.S. or if you're an international student, you may be in for a bit of a shock. It's very cold and very snowy and the winter is long. But it's still worth it -- Cornell is a great school.</p>
