<p>Um. What do you want to know? You have as good a shot as any other top-tier student, obviously. However, that means 50% probability at best, as at any other highly competitive school.</p>

<p>My junior year math/science grades are lackluster for engineering (B+/A-'s), and while I believe most of my other credentials are at least reasonable for Cornell, how significantly do you think that would affect the overall application?</p>

<p>You’ll be competitive if you can explain well why Cornell Engineering is a good fit for you.</p>
