<p>I can’t really give you a proper chancing since you’re a sophomore, but looks like your SATs and stuff are good. Your EC’s look pretty strong as well, just make sure you have something that spans across all four years of high school.</p>
<p>but…
I think you should think more about what schools you want to go to before deciding on whether you want to be ED for Cornell (this is coming from an ED applicant to Cornell AAP). Do a lot more research. Also, the size of the dorms should be the last of your concerns for college selection. You’ll make do just fine with whatever size you get. What you should be concerned about is tuition, the level of education, major choices, social aspects, campus size, location, etc.</p>
<p>Based on this, I am sure you are well qualify. However, that’s being said, you need to continue to maintain everything, as well as having an unique essay</p>
