<p>I screwed around in middle school and took really easy class frshman year and since then I've worked every summer to get in the classes that I have now. Will they look at that as a factor in admission, and if so is it good or bad?</p>
<p>My other concern is there's the IB profram at my school, and I didn't enroll because of Middle School. However, I have tkaen the majority of AP's at my school and like I said, worked all my summers to get there by taking summer school classes etc. to get there.</p>
<p>Thanks for the feedback!</p>
<p>BE BRUTALLY HONEST!!!!!</p>
<p>I went to Cornell's summer session and my teachers were very fond of me and I maintained an A- average, if that means anything, I hear they look at that.</p>
<p>Looks really good to me. All of your leadership positions are impressive and you've obviously challenged yourself with your courses senior year. And an A- average at Cornell summer session is definitely going to look good. Did you get recommendations from any of your professors?</p>
<p>A few of the highlights from this post:</p>
<p>1) "Chanes"
2) "paticents"
3) "Treasuerer"
4) "slightlt"
5) "profram"</p>
<p>Lol, just kidding.</p>
<p>I think your CHANCES are pretty good. </p>
<p>Unless you forgot to proofread your essays....:P</p>
<p>yeah maybe i shouldve taken a typing class?....</p>
<p>seriously, thanks for your responses..anymore?</p>
<p>I'm not sure how good Cornell is compared to other schools but if it is as good as the others, I think your SAT might be a little low. I think 1450+ would be a good score. If your 4.2 weighted was out of 5 pts for AP/honors classes, I think that's a little low too. You probably have around a 3.6 or so unweighted?? You're senior year classes are rigourous (btw is there even a econ and government class? I thought it was just micro/macro econ or just govt/comp govt). Your clubs are pretty good especially the prez and vp ones. Treasurer eh, that's kind of iffy. It doesn't say much of leadership. I remember in one of my clubs, we elected some first year treasurer just because he was one of the few who nominated themselves. Overall for an RD decision, I think your app is a little weaker than some of the other people who might apply, but of course colleges never have any minimum reqs or such so you can still get in.</p>
<p>Your SATs and grades are a bit low, but nothing too bad. I think you're fine in the extracuricular/leadership/service categories. I'd say you have a pretty good shot.</p>
<p>Still, it's always difficult to judge from just "statistics," because we can't really understand YOU, like who you are, what your interests are, and what separates you from every other applicant.</p>
<p>But I like your attitude, and your work ethic...I mean "BE BRUTALLY HONEST!!!!!"...it doesn't get any better than that! Hopefully admissions will feel the same way. Your spelling is pitiful though...</p>
