<p>Get your writing score up a bit. Something around 750 will make your app look much better. Otherwise, you have solid credentials and a decent chance. Definitely follow though with it.</p>

<p>Sadly, I can't take the November SAT since my high school marching band will be in Indianapolis for Bands of America Grand Nationals competition the testing day. I've already signed up for December test.. think rushing my December scores for Cornell ED(given I do much better) would benefit me any? I believe by then Cornell will already have made a decision</p>
