<p>If you can, bring up that SAT score. At least to a 700 in each section. You’re sitting below Cornell’s average right now, and without hooks, you’ll need to make sure your numbers are impeccable.</p>

<p>The greatest weakness, from what I can see, is your grades. That class rank puts you in the top 20% of your class; most Cornell applicants are in the top 10%, if not higher. Unless you have external circumstances that hindered your academic performance (or if your school is intensely competitive), I’d put you at a mid- to high-reach.</p>

<p>You have some strong commitments to extracurriculars, but SATs may be a bit low. Are you planning on retaking in November or December?</p>

4

<p>I can’t retake it :confused: Im applying early so my scores wouldn’t get in on time</p>

5

<p>I believe you can take the November SAT and still have them sent ED, on time. You may want to reaffirm this with Cornell, though.</p>

6

<p>They said it may or may not get in on time depending on how fast Collegeboard sends in the SAT scores. But can anyone else chance me please? Im really nervous… lol</p>
