<p>IMHO, I would say that you have a good shot at both schools, although the SAT is a little low. The EC’s, rigor of schedule, and GPA all sound good, though. I’d say match to Johns Hopkins and high match/low reach to Cornell. If you can get that SAT score up a little, I think it would be match for both.</p>

<p>IMO if you can raise the SAT score, you have a really good chance for both Cornell/JHU, but also those are both highly ranked and selective schools so there’s always a chance of rejection, but based off what you’ve listed you have a very good chance into both. If you can get an improved SAT score in the 2200-2300 range, that’d drastically increase your chances.
Again that’s just my take on it lol</p>

<p>Chance back if you can? <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1622682-chances-for-all-uc-s-georgia-tech-george-washington-university.html#latest”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1622682-chances-for-all-uc-s-georgia-tech-george-washington-university.html#latest&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>you definitely sound competitve, but everyone does a lot of clubs so focus on your leadership. for example, why were you only president 9th grade. 2040 is kinda low for your target schools, so think hard about a retake.</p>

<p>feel free to ask me any other questions as we seem to be aiming for some of the same schools</p>
