chances at cornell engineering

<p>gpa (sigh): 90.0uw, 93w
too many aps (12 by the time i graduate)</p>

<p>sats - 2400, 800chem, 800bio, 800 math IIC (yes i'm one of THOSE ppl)
aps - chem, bio, calc ab, comp sci a, us hist, us govt all 5</p>

<p>ECs - nothing spectacular, 4 yrs varsity, 250 hrs-ish community service, 4 yrs violin, harvard ssp</p>

<p>I'd say your chances are good.</p>

<p>dear god...only 2400? i cant believe you missed the bonus question..</p>

<p>ur chances are pretty good it looks like. dunno about the EC's, but i must admit there is some commitment in those</p>

<p>um, there was a kid just like u a few months ago from New Jersey, applied ED to the engineering school with a 1600 on the dot, got DEFERRED.</p>

<p>there's a lot more to life than test scores.</p>

<p>might want to check out

\c\e\s.\c\o\m</p>

<p>and see their applicant strength</p>

<p>dude you have no chance in he||...lol jk..idk your stats are deff phenominal just blow them away in the essays and i say you're set. Just dont come off as only a geek w/o any other involvement</p>

<p>what are u people talking about? (bball87 and macalesterhopeful). Verybored, u have an excellent chance ur ec's are fine and ur test scores are excellent. I think people are just jealous of u but anyway I got in ed into the college of engineering with only a 1490. U stand a very good chance</p>

<p>bump da bump :)</p>

<p>bball, are you talking about me?</p>

<p>yeahhhhhhhh, sorry man, good luck though RD</p>

<p>your GPA is low and your scores show that your IQ is enormously high and they you are likely a genius... unless your just joking about ur scores which is quite possible</p>

<p>thanx, bball</p>

<p>i was surprised it took so long for someone to mention my grades! lol</p>

<p>and no, those scores are not jokes</p>

<p>bnair... my comment was directed to "yes i'm one of the THOSE people." how arrogant. of course he has a chance. but test scores don't make (or break) the applicant. haha i'm not jealous. i already know where i'm going and i'm happy about it.</p>

<p>so, why is your GPA so low</p>

<p>macalesterhopeful - by "those people" i meant high SAT low GPA, no egotism at all was intended.</p>

<p>and... my GPA is low because - our school gives us +5 for AP courses, and i'm somewhat of a slacker (stupid really, not doing hw and crap like that)</p>

<p>Sorry Macalaster</p>

<p>its the 2400 SAT thats hard...
the 3 800s SAT II arent all that hard</p>

<p>another random thing:
this chem genius from my school is goin to MIT with those stats</p>

<p>im pretty close...just need that 2400 (lol not happening)</p>

<p>ah ah ah ah stayin alive... stayin alive... </p>

<p>lol creative bump</p>
