Hi everyone, I’ve posted one of these before but I thought I would try again since I’m starting to work on my application. I’m applying ED to CALS with a major in nutritional science.
White female from competitive public magnet school in Maryland
GPA: 3.84 UW, 4.57 W after summer health class…not so perfect grades freshman/sophomore year, but straight As junior year with 5 APs + 2 honors classes
SAT: superscore 2190 (750 R, 690 M, 750 W)
ACT: took last month, hoping for at least 33 but math was rough. Usually I score 33-34 on practice tests with science bringing my score down a lot.
Subject tests: Just took Math II and Lit, taking Bio M in fall
APs:
NSL (4), Stat, Calc AB, Lang, World History, Art History
ECs:
Model UN - future co-captain, organizing workshops for competition skills
Mock Trial attorney
Girl Scouts since 1st grade, working on nutrition-related Gold Award
French Honor Society
I just applied for National Honor Society and National Science Honor Society
Other things:
Work at a farmer’s market and babysitting
Internship with nutritionist
Tutoring kids in science
I visited Cornell for a couple of days this year and knew it was perfect for me. I am coming back this summer and I can’t wait. Please let me know what you think, I know my scores and grades aren’t great, but I just want to know what my chances are. Also, if anyone knows anything about the nutritional science major, please talk to me because I’d love to know more! Thank you so much!
