<p>So If you could tell me what my chances are that would be greatly appreciated. Hope this wasnt too long</p>
<p>Nice well rounded application, good chance, hope you get in! apply ed btw.</p>
<p>good chances, best of luck!</p>
<p>btw, I'm also from Kansas, what school do you go to?</p>
<p>i got to blue valley high school in stilwell ks</p>
<p>its been a couple of days so bump. my other choices r usc, umich, carnegie mellon.</p>
<p>you def have a good chance...strong EC's and solid grades. GL!</p>
<p>ne1 else have any thoughts?</p>
<p>good chance hope you get in ..apply ED</p>
<p>ed should get you in. good luck</p>
<p>wait, ur goin to oxford???</p>
<p>Really good chance at both ED and RD. If I were you, I would apply to an even more selective school ED/EA and then just apply to cornell RD.</p>
<p>lol, thanks guys, and no im not going to oxford collegekid it was a little joke.</p>
<p>atomic fusion is a cornell troll, trust me if you want to get in..apply early, you are a strong applicant but in the regular pool you want stand out at all</p>
<p>he prob didn't get in himself</p>
<p>How am I a troll, you moron?
First of all he has a great GPA, great rank, good ECs, and okay SAT scores, and better ACT scores (make sure you send them in because it equates to about 2200 SAT). He's also not only an URM, but from an underrepresented state too (I think Kansas is?). That is what will push him over the edge and be a major hook. He can get into Cornell RD. Just try taking the SAT again to raise it around 2200, and get around 750 for SAT II and you should have a great chance at ED and RD.</p>
<p>And I probably didn't get in myself? I'm a senior, idiot, check my previous posts and you will see that. I haven't applied anywhere yet.</p>
<p>yeah, im going to retake the SAT and since i missed 6 and omitted 2 on CR, i will focus my studying on that section, and my essay. Because they take the highest scores on each section from any sat you've taken right?</p>
<p>you probably have a good chance. I'm nigerian too! what tribe is your family from?</p>
