3

<p>Took AP Stat and AP Euro so far (Sophomore Year), both 5s</p>

4

<p>While this all appears rather favorable:

  1. You’re a first-semester junior, so there’s a long, demanding path ahead.
  2. Your ECs aren’t bad, but neither are they impressive.
  3. You really need to understand that Cornell will deny many deserving and distinguished applicants, with essentially similar records.</p>

<p>In sum, CONGRATULATIONS: you’re doing well, you’re on-track, BUT the competition is extreme.</p>

<p>I would give Cornell a High match for you.
