Cornell ED Class of 2021 Discussion Thread

2230 SAT to CAS

Wow guys your scores are all good…
33 ACT (34 superscore) to AAP
I kinda feel bad for myself…

@RUHTRA999 lol don’t worry, your fit matters so much more than scores, like we all have similar, strong scores so it’s much more important to have strong essays

I am international by the way… :frowning:

2240 CALS InfoSys

1500 New Sat CALS Animal Science

Everyone needs to calm down lol, we’ve taken all our tests and submitted our apps, now we wait until the 8th.
There’s no point in looking at the past thinking what you could have done better, what if my scores/grades were higher, etc, it’s unproductive thinking. Be proud of what you’ve done so far and how resilient we’ve become coming this far!

32 ACT for CALS animal science.

34 ACT for CALS environmental engineering

2190 32 CALS Environmental and Sustainability Sciences

and is it true that they only look at CR+M on the old SAT??

2300 COE

Also, I know everyone’s stressed out but there’s really nothing we can do about it right now, so just stay calm, guys! We’ll be ok no matter what happens on the 8th.

Edit: Not implying that Cornell admissions isn’t a big deal; it’s my dream school.

@CORNyshELL http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/cornell-university/1065909-cornell-doesnt-look-at-writing-section-on-sat.html I’ve heard it a few times, but I kinda doubt the validity of it as it still appears on the sat score section of the app?

and 2220 COE

1530 New SAT CAS

Does anyone know if January 2018 admission is offered for ED or is it RD only?

Hey y’all! I also applied ED to Cornell- intending to major in Animal Science. Gosh, but after reading all of your standardized test scores and such, I’m not feeling too confident. My scores are below average (when it comes to Cornell’s avg.) even though my GPA, grades, and EC’s are all in very good standing. I also believe my essays and reccs are strong but, I’m a little worried now. Cornell’s been the school of my dreams since I was seven, and I just hope it can become my reality. Best of luck to you all. xx

@soulsurfer99 So what if you feel your scores are below average? Scores are not an accurate depiction of who someone is. Essays are. If your essays are strong, then why does it matter? Unless you got a 1 on the ACT or a 200 on the SAT, chill. You got this.

True, the best you can do now is hope for an acceptance while bracing for a rejection

Hey, the poll by @UltimateSidemen2 was pretty informative. Could somebody post it again?
