Also - my school doesn’t calculate GPA and I just recalculated it for myself and turns out my W GPA is actually 4.4, idk how much that helps

I think you have a great chance at getting into Cornell relative to other applicants. While your ECs are pretty good, your stats are fantastic and the legacy hook helps a lot. If you wrote good essays I could see you getting into Cornell
