Chances for Cornell?

Chance Me / Match Me!
1

<p>I'm planning to apply Early Decision to CAS in Cornell University next year, and I'd like to double major in mathematics and music, would you be willing to chance me?</p>

<p>SAT: 2290, 1580 CR+M (M:800, CR:780)
SAT II: World History: 720, Math 2: 800, I'm taking Physics and US History next month (fingers crossed)
GPA: 3.94
Rank: So far, I'm 45/~500 which is barely scraping the top 10%. However, this is based off freshman and sophomore years only, and I've been getting spectacular grades so far this year, so I'm safely assuming my rank will go up. I'm not sure by how much, though.
AP's: World Hist. (5) and Music Theory (5) in 10th grade.
This year I self studied US Hist, Stats, and APES. I'm hopeful for 4's and 5's, but you never know.
IB: I'm doing the full IB diploma, so I'm taking basically all IB courses this year and next year, except for AP BC Calc next year.</p>

<p>Extra Curriculars:
Jazz Band 9th-12th
Marching Band 9th-12th
Pit Orchestra 11th-12th
Music Honor Society 10th-12th
Mathletes 9th-12th
Academic Team 11th-12th
National Honor Society 11th- 12th</p>

<p>Various volunteer/community service hours, mostly concentrated on working with an autistic after school program</p>

<p>Race: Asian/White
Income Bracket: Low (<60k/yr)
School: Public</p>

<p>I'm gonna be submitting a few of my music compositions into the music department as a supplement.</p>

<p>Yep.</p>

<p>Grades, SAT, SAT II’s- solid, they’re not the reason you MIGHT get turned away.
Rank- pretty bad, possible contributing factor for denial, god forbid you get denied =)
EC’s- ehhh, really quite cookie cutter applicant like. Probably weakest area. </p>

<p>Your income status will help you lots though, good luck.</p>

<p>I guess, I mean those EC’s are what I like, so if my passions are cookie cutter, then i apologize…
I spend most of my time composing music anyway. I’ll try to convey that in my application I guess. I’m hoping to win the state composition competition this year. I’ve been runner up the past couple of years so I’m kind of hopeful.</p>
