<p>Which program are you applying to? I am asking because an applicant pool will be different depends on a program under CALS. BTW, I will be applying to Cornell as an early decision applicant as well. Moreover, I am South Korean. What’s up man? lol</p>

3

<p>I’m a South Korean as well :] I’ll probably be applying for biological sciences. Hoping to take on a pre-med track! What do you think?</p>

4

<p>i think if you’re an in-state applicant you have a pretty good shot. if you’re not, it’s a toss up to me</p>

5

<p>Hmm… I’m in New Jersey. Would that help?</p>

<p>What made you say that about in-state applicant?
Does Cornell have such thing like quota system?
I am just wondering because I am a NY resident who will apply to
AEM program as an ED applicant for the class of 2014.</p>

<p>I think you have a good chance to get in.
And just for a shot note, I would choose to send your #1) SAT score since that is more balanced.</p>

<p>^Cornell does not honor score choice. The OP has to send in everything</p>
