<p>well certainly DUMB KIDS won't get in...actually...no, after some reflection on some of my daily interactions, I can't say that.
you have a not-impossible shot...certainly go ahead and apply.</p>

3

<p>there are plenty of dumb kids here. plenty. it can't hurt to apply.</p>

4

<p>You are so dumb that you scored in the 98th percentile on the SAT.
Anyways, you have a good shot.</p>

5

<p>wow. i love the sarcasm here.
but you have a good shot @ Cornell.</p>

6

<p>What college are you applying to? It's impossible to chance otherwise.</p>

7

<p>I am applying Rd, To CAS...........</p>

<p>I want to major in Economics/History, my essay is going to be about this and my career goals........Chance it up...........LoL, I used the scarasm to get peoples attention.......</p>

<p>You make feel so inadequate. I am puzzled about what I am doing here at Cornell while my stats were much lower than yours.</p>

<p>Dude at least you got into an ivy-league school, how many people can say that?---obvisouly Cornell thinks you have what it takes to go there....</p>

<p>I am probably going to get rejected from every ivy I apply to... (Upenn, Columbia, Cornell, and Brown)</p>

<p>You are one of those candidates who is near impossible to chance accurately because you have given yourself a fighting chance in almost every category. I would say your faith would be decided by spur of the moment stuff by the admin officers. I know that isn't very helpful in terms of 'chances', but what i am saying is that at least you have an average chance of getting in. </p>

<p>Just remember, kids who apply to HYPS also apply to Cornell as a backup, but kids who apply to lower ranked colleges also apply to Cornell as a shot in the dark, so don't worry about being inadequate. There are plenty of kids that feel that way.</p>

<p>Haha, just because you didn't get a 2390 like all the other freaks on this website doesn't mean you're dumb.</p>
