<p>Hi to all Cornell Early Decision Applicants for Class of 2010. While we wait exactly 30 days for the decisions to come in, why not gather round and discuss the other schools that we are all applying to. Im sure many of you are working on other applications as we speak, as I am.</p>

<p>I'm kind of surprised how many other super-selective colleges people are applying to if they don't get into Cornell ED...wouldn't it be a pretty rare candidate NOT to get accepted to Cornell early but then get into Columbia, Penn, Cal-Berkeley etc. with regular-decision?</p>
<p>Brown
Amherst
Wesleyan
Boston U.
Boston C.
Notre Dame
Brandeis
Syracuse</p>
<p>I don't think it's too surprising; at the level of schools, acceptance is a roll of the dice. I think that if they want to apply, it won't hurt, and you never know when the dice will fall in your favor (or against you).</p>
<p>
Not that unusual when you consider the following</p>
<p>The profile of the class of 2009 reported that
of 12980 applications received with a Math SAT score between 700 to 800
4522 were accepted, (8458 denied)</p>
<p>and</p>
<p>of 8488 applications received with a Verbal SAT score between 700 to 800
3552 were accepted. (4936 denied)
Link to Profile of Class of 2009</p>
<p>Students with those stats would be competitive at any of the schools you mentioned. </p>
<p>and since Cornell only fills about a third of its' class ED, that's only about 1000 acceptances issued ED. (1,067 out of 2570 ED applications last year)</p>
<p>Good Luck to all :)</p>
<p>I'd be interested to see how many were denied who had both verbal and math scores above 700.</p>
<p>But anyway, not to hijack the thread, but do you think I should maybe add UC-Berkeley to my list as another reach? Applying for electrical and computer engineering...</p>
<p>We have a hijacker onboard! Shoot him! :)</p>
<p><em>Runs and hides</em> You'll never get me!</p>
<p>Por Favor, Lets continue the list.....</p>
