<p>So, I know Chance threads aren't really accurate, but I really just want to get a gist of where I stand at the moment. I really want to go to Cornell, but I feel that I can't show any level of interest (no interview & can't do campus visits). Does Cornell consider interest heavily?</p>
<p>Anyway, here's kind of a resume:</p>
<p>Stats:[ul]</p>
<p>[<em>] SAT I (by section): not sending (but 2050 Composite)
[</em>] SAT IIs: 760 Math 2, 760 Bio M
[<em>] ACT: 31 (35 E, 34 M, 29 R, 27 S; 31 E&W)
[</em>] APs: World History (4), Psychology (5), Macroeconomics (4), Spanish Language (4), English Language (3), U.S. History (5), Biology (3-will retake), Spanish Literature (this year), Chemistry (this year), Government (this year), English Literature (this year), and Calculus BC (this year)
[<em>] GPA (UW, W): UW - 3.9ish; W- 5.5ish/ 6.0

<p>I know I really don't have any Science/ Math EC to be considered for engineering, but I really exhibited my passion for science, innovation, engineering, and research.</p>
<p>Thanks for your responses - it really helps!</p>
