<p>I may be forgetting a thing or two but hopefully you get a decent idea of the picture.
Any respsonse would be helpful, thanks</p>

<p>You would have a pretty good chance - Cornell only looks at math and reading too. It’s still a low reach for regular, but you should be alright.</p>

<p>If you have a hook you’ll be in, that applies to all of your schools except BU which you should be able to get into pretty easily.</p>
