Cornell and BC

<p>I really want to attend Cornell. I am planning to apply ED for Cornell, and RD for BC. Of course I will apply to other schools as well. Also please give me suggestions for schools in the NE. </p>

<p>General Info:
School is an okay public school. A few students each year go either ivies or schools that have similar prestige. I am not sure what my rank is but I was in the top 10 percent and my GPA rose so I'm guessing I moved up even more. I am Korean and need aid. </p>

<p>Academics:
GPA: 4.2-4.3 UW
Rank: 1st Decile and there are about 250 students in my class
SAT: 660/660/710 and 730/670/660 (I know my scores are low but I have been doing well on my practice tests and I am predicitng around 2200 although I can never be sure how I will do on the actual test. Also, my scores are actually really high compared to other students)
SATII : 740 US History 700 BIO RE (I took US History a second time but i got a 690-_-) I may take another subject test
AP Tests: 4s on US and World History
In my freshmen year, I only had history honors becasue school policy didn't let me take the other honor classes. I didn't complete some course in middle school. Nevertheless, I took honors classes in my junior and sophmore years except the foreign language classes. I took one ap in sophomore year and one ap junior year. Im taking three this year.
Award: National Latin Exam recognition. I got the second highest award. I forget waht it was called
Honor Roll 3 years and expect to senior year</p>

<p>EC and Community Service:
Baseball: 12 years. Made the team all four years. Most ppl get cut. Im not the greatest player but still. Im also playing varsity my senior year. Im hoping I can write my essay on baseball. It's my passion and I put in all my effort just to be able to play. I just love this sport and I learned alot. Hopefully, I can think of something unique.

<p>bumpppppppppp</p>

<p>magna cum laude i think</p>

<p>something like that</p>

<p>Not much in the way of leadership in your ECs, which is a problem when applying to Ivy League schools. Also, your schedule doesn’t seem that challenging. Cornell is a reach, but you should be ok with BC.</p>
