<p>...other things i cant remeber right now</p>

<p>bump......</p>

<p>i had the same GPA as you, but a slightly higher weighted one. My SAT's were only a 2000 though, and i got rejected. I'd say you have a pretty decent shot because you have a good amount of EC's, but definitely have some backups.</p>

<p>You have test scores that put you into the range of a plausible Cornell admit. Your status as an URM should get you in.</p>

<p>You should get in. My daughter got in with a 1700 SAT and a91 avg. We are also African american.You should try for the Human Ecology or the other state schools in Cornell.</p>

<p>does your school offer any APs?</p>

<p>yea but only AP sciences are offered for junior year. Senior Year I'm taking Ap environmental science and AP cal. No AP are offered for fresh and sophemores. Most people take AP's their senior year if they take them. AP US is offered junior year but I couldnt take it because i took US historyt sophemore year.</p>

<p>do you go to Gonzage College High School? or whatever they call it...</p>
