<p>Yeah I would agree, and would be very surprised if you didn't get into Cornell. I think you also have a great chance at Dartmouth. Your grades, academic ECs, and definately your URM status help. Also Dart is very big on languages so your stress on Latin would probably look really appealing to them also.</p>

<p>Retaking the SAT will help you secure it even more, and then just make sure you have good recs and essays.</p>

<p>The only cracks in your resume that I can see might be leadership in clubs/EC's and that SAT score. Otherwise, you're in a good position imo. Rember, Cornell puts a lot of stress on your essays; start thinking about what you're going to write and how it relates to your passions. (especially how you will utilize Cornell's resources to benefit your education)</p>
