<p>I think you have 2 big problems: your rank, your math SAT score. This is a major reach, even in state at ILR.</p>

<p>Also, my mother went to Cornell so I have one gen. legacy</p>

<p>Your math scores are quite low for a school that asks its applicants to take SAT II math. That combined with your class rank makes this an unlikely acceptance. Legacy might help you (might get you deferred-- then re-take the SAT), but it can’t help not being in at least the top 15%. You never know though, as ILR is a pretty special school. </p>
