<p>Ah. I think there is a problem with how it is posted online, but…</p>

<p>Weighted: 5.0400
Unweighted: 4.1650 (this is what I don’t understand, since it is out of 4.0, but the site lists it as over 4.165 O_o )</p>

<p>Sat score is very low I would highly recommend retaking it and aim for 1400+. Class rank is excellent and everything else is fine. Which school in Cornell will you apply to?</p>

5

<p>Probably the College of Arts and Science. :)</p>

6

<p>I’d put your odds at around 40%. If you apply ED, you can add 10%.</p>

7

<p>Weird. You’ll want to get your two-part SAT to 1400 to have a good shot, ahah.</p>

8

<p>No just submit your ACT</p>

9

<p>Oops missed your ACT. You are fine then!</p>

10

<p>I missed it too, whoops!</p>

<p>Thank you all for these positive comments. It really is making me more hopeful to get into this reach school.</p>

<p>Of course, I am hoping that my essay is good, since a bad essay could ruin it all for me.</p>
