<p>GPA is decent and scores are good. EC’s are okay, but nothing spectacular. Without knowing which college you would be applying to, it’s hard to say. So overall, I’m putting you at 45%</p>

<p>What’s your Cr/M? cornell doesnt care about writing.</p>

<p>As for chances, I’d say you have a 50-50 shot. Nothing in your application here stands out yet your grades are top and your course schedule is rigorous. So you’ll probably come off as an average applicant. Write excellent, interesting, and insightful essays to maximize your chances, however, I wouldn’t give you the edge in cornell admissions.</p>
