<p>Yea, I'd say you'll be all right in RD admissions. I don't recall if they do rolling admissions-I don't believe so, but you should be fine. I'm impressed with the Physics SAT II score!! that's a very very tough test; not many people do well on it, or even have the balls to take it! congrats! But as I said, you have very strong info. You're definitely a solid candidate for admission into Cornell (yes, that internship looks very impressive).</p>

<p>id say, on a percent scale, maybe around 70%.</p>

4

<p>70% sounds a bit unrealistic. What college are you applying to?</p>

5

<p>arts and sciences</p>

6

<p>75% with RD.</p>

<p>Cool, I'm in arts. The acceptance rate is about the same at arts as it is at Brown and Dartmouth. I give you 40%. Good luck!</p>
