<p>My essays are solid and connect to why I want to be an animal science major, especially within Cornell's CALS program.</p>

<p>How much can you pay per year? </p>

<p>Are you saying what is my family’s potential contribution?</p>

<p>yes.</p>

<p>My parents and I have discussed it and if I were to get into Cornell which is by far the most expensive out of the schools I am applying to we will make it work somehow financially, and that applies to the other schoolsI am applying to as well. </p>

<p>Auburn is a safety; You will get pretty good scholarship based on your GPA and SAT M+CR score.
Cornell:reach(not only it’s Ivy but also two APs are far from enough)
Uconn: high match</p>

<p>The only reason I took two APs my junior year is because in my school unless you are in the medical sciences program you can only really start taking APs as a junior. I would have taken AP Lang/Comp but it did not fit into my schedule since I was taking both AP Bio and physics and the times the classes were running conflicted. I am taking four this year however, do you think that makes a difference?</p>

<p>Junior year is the most important, and senior year course load isn’t super important, unfortunately. You can mention about your school policy in CA…
IMO it’s stupid of schools to put limits on how to take AP.</p>
