<p>I feel ivy league schools are pretty random when it comes to deciding who gets in and who doesn’t. Your profile seems pretty good so far but make sure to write a strong college essay because it is one of the ultimate deciding factors. I know someone with a 2340 SAT score and 3.9 GPA but got rejected from Cornell (Most likely because of her lack of Extracurricular activities or an unfavorable College essay)</p>

<p>Your Grades/SATs are certainly competitive for Cornell.</p>

<p>The TSA national placement may help a lot.</p>

<p>I don’t think that ANYONE is a lock for Cornell, but based on what you’ve written I think you will be very competitive with an average chance for admissions.</p>

<p>Would I be competitive if I applied to Princeton?</p>

<p>bummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmp</p>

<p>how much do you think my physics score will hurt me?</p>

8

<p>You do not have a significant standing stat compared to the thousands of others going. However, if you write an extraordinary essay, you may have a chance! Unfortunately I believe Princeton is out of your league!</p>

<p>I think your Physics Sat II score is honestly the weakest part of your application especially because you are applying as an engineer. I would recommend that you retake that test or take a different science and try and score in the 700s</p>

<p>How much would my Physics score hurt me? I Should probably start studying for the November one if i’m going to take it</p>
