No APs, school only offers one, in English, which is my weakest subject, but otherwise i tried to take the hardest courses by taking enriched math and science, and taking higher grade level courses.
I believe my GPA is 3.9, according to wikipedia and another website.</p>

<p>Come back when you have SAT and SATII. Predicted scores are not reality.</p>

<p>I’d definitely put it at a reach.</p>

<p>Your test scores are below average for cornell, although your GPA is quite good. While your EC"s are good, they are nothing extremely outstanding or unique except maybe the edinburgh thing. </p>

<p>Good luck!</p>

<p>Chance me back?

<p>Don’t say predicted. One of my friends “predicted” 2130 off of what he got in the blue book, and ended up with an 1900.</p>

<p>Bump?</p>

<p>Currently its a reach because your ACT is a bit low but depends on SAT scores too

<p>the average is slightly low… From my school (Alberta), those who got into the US universities had overall 94-96 averages (unhooked, founded 1/2 clubs, valedictorians, etc), but out school presidents usually get in with a 91-93 avg (all years). So i dunno… Being class president really helps</p>

<p>I would say Low Reach.</p>

<p>Chance me back

<p>Reach, but if you SAT comes back well it could be possible</p>

15

<p>@gummylemons, I think the grades in Manitoba are slightly inflated a bit, from Wikipedia, an A is 85+, which is 4.0. I don’t want to be president of student council, all they do is discuss their life during meetings, they dont do anything.</p>

16

<p>Obviously you need work on your test scores, but with good essays and good rec’s then you have a better chance. Its gonna be reach no matter what tho</p>

17

<p>@m4xw3ll‌ , you did well on your SAT’s can you gimme some advice. I am about 680-690 on Reading, looking to get to about 730-750.</p>

18

<p>@manas1997‌ Honestly I just studied like hell. I took an online kaplan course and constantly took practice tests. Also for Crit. reading, go over roots. I made some flashcards and those helped me so much.</p>

19

<p>@m4xw3ll‌, Would you be able to post some of those flash cards online by any chance. I am restarting SAT prepin like a week or 2.</p>

<p>yeah sure!</p>
