<p>It looks like you're in great shape for Cornell ED (I think you'll make it), Northwestern, NYU, RUtgers, BC. The other three might be a reach, but you never know!</p>

<p>shouldnt you know if you got into Cornell by now since you applied ED?</p>

4

<p>Definitely do NOT mention who's who among high school students. Everyone gets it.</p>

<p>Great chance at Cornell ED. I think Sarang confused Penn State with U of Penn...Penn State is a safety. Rutgers is also a safety. Cornell, Northwestern, NYU and BC are good matches. Columbia and Princeton are reaches.</p>

<p>You have great stats. Just wondering, how did you get AP Scholar with Distinction?</p>

<p>Collegeboard says that the award is granted to "students who receive an average grade of at least 3.5 on all AP Exams taken, and grades of 3 or higher on five or more of these exams."</p>

<p>You've only listed 4 AP scores.</p>
