<p>Essays:
Pretty much done with my common app essay. It's about how I used to rescue earthworms when I was younger. I still need outside input, but I'm happy with it.</p>

<p>Teacher Recommendations:
AP Lang teacher (should be great, I'm one of the strongest students in the class and she's also the Yearbook advisor); AP Bio teacher (should be alright, I hear he writes good letters and I worked hard in his class)</p>

<p>Counselor Rec:
She loves me. Should be outstanding. We just had a huge talk yesterday about Cornell, and she really wants to help me get in there. She said she hasn't had much luck in the past getting kids into Cornell, but she thinks I can change that!</p>

<p>Other
State : Utah, although I moved the summer before my junior year from Ohio, so that's why many of my EC's are only for 9-10 or 11-12</p>

<p>School Type: strong medium-sized public, multiple HYPMS acceptances this year, 4 NMS</p>

<p>Ethnicity: as white as they come</p>

<p>Gender: female</p>

<p>Income Bracket: upper class, no FA necessary</p>

<p>Hooks (URM, first generation college, etc.): double legacy at Cornell (Mom went to CALS, Dad was a hotelie)</p>

<p>I’d say your chances are above average, especially if you apply ED.</p>

<p>Very good chance ED! Personally, I think you’ll get in, but definitely don’t get complacenent.</p>

<p>Almost positive that you would be in if you’re ED, legacy, good grades etc. Just make sure your essays are adequate and you should have no problem.</p>
