<p>thank you to anyone who gave me their opinion.
Cornell has been my number one choice for a few years now, and I can't believe that I'll find out in a few months whether I'm headed up to Ithaca next year or. >_<</p>

<p>Last year, the overall acceptance rate for women engineers was 45%, as shown here:
