I'll refrain from posting my weighted GPA as it isn't quite as high as I would have liked. Our school has a 2 AP a year policy and even then only from junior year. We have no honors or pre-ap classes. Got special permission to take 3 during senior year.
Course rigor is probably as hard as it gets for our school.

<p>“Hooks: I can down a gallon of milk in ten seconds.”</p>

<p>Good chance for Cornell, you clearly show initiative and you’ve done above and beyond for your school. Being asian hurts a little, but you make up for it with with the milk thing. Plus your scores are very good, you dont have much to worry about.
