<p>Hi Sam! Haha I guess most ppl are still trying hard to believe they r going to CornellXD(haha i still cannot believe it myself) can never get over the excitement i think! still it surprises me very few posts r in this section! yep lets break the ice! btw which college are you going?</p>
<p>Yeah my senioritis is really bad. It feels like high school is insignificant now, and the days drag on. I guess that’s what happens when you view high school as a means to an end. Now that I’ve achieved that end, the means seems pointless =/</p>
<p>Hey guys, I’m trying to finish up my application for Cornell but can’t help thinking of how pointless it is. My SAT scores are not the greatest (1890-1940) but I have a commendable GPA (3.9) and several extracurricular activities. In your opinions, do you think I stand a chance with a good essay?</p>
<p>Baeuws, yes. Apply. If Cornell is what you want, don’t lose hope before applying. You never know how “pointless” it is unless you try. If you don’t get in, you’re not losing anything. Plenty of other schools will take that SAT score. But, if you do get in, then hooray! you win. SO, when it comes down to it, you have nothing to lose.</p>
