Chance Me / Match Me!

<p>Haha so I got into Cornell (which im perfectly satisfied with), but just the fact that I got a "Likely Letter" from Cornell makes it pretty annoying because shouldn't that mean I should've been good enough to have been accepted to some of the other ivy's without a likely? </p>

<p>My Stats:</p>

<p>GPA: 3.9 uw
SAT: 2380 single sitting, 790 CR, 790 WR 800M
APS: 5's on 8 of them from 10-11th grade
SAT Subject Tests: Math 2: 800 USH: 800
Tons of Ec's
Good essays and recs
No fin aid</p>

<p>tell me what you all think! </p>

<p>No, getting a likely from one place doesn’t mean you deserved to get into any of the other ivies.</p>

8

<p>You were lucky to get into Cornell.</p>

<p>Why was I “lucky” ?</p>

10

<p>But Cornell is the best ivy</p>

11

<p>I am very satisfied its just that I think that perhaps my app was good enough for others</p>

12

<p>Ever since you submitted your CA, you had no chance of an Ivy. Be thankful for Cornell.</p>

<p>@Bouncer what you said makes absolutely no sense. Cornell IS an ivy, so I obviously had a chance. </p>

<p>bump!</p>

<p>What does it matter what anyone thinks? It is what it is…you were not “cheated” out of anything…you never had anything to be cheated out of- only the same chance as thousands of kids just like you. You got a great acceptance, someone else got the others… If you were after an Ivy, you got it…perhaps you have other acceptances to choose from also. Congratulations on Cornell!</p>

<p>Thanks. </p>

<p>BUMP! </p>

<p>And who said I cared about what other people thinks? </p>
