<p>I would say 50-50, or maybe slightly less. Everything is good enough for RD at Cornell CAS, but nothing is unique or outstanding. It just depends on your application and the competition from other applicants.</p>

3

<p>60% -80%. Pretty outstanding, but most people applying are alos. You need 3 satII's, and you need to improve the two you have.</p>

4

<p>thanks for the feedback. Anything else??
I also have an essay that's in desperate need of editing, if anyone can help.</p>

5

<p>SAT 2's are very low</p>

6

<p>you only need 2 sat II's for arts and sciences, thought you might one to raise your scores</p>

7

<p>b.u.m.p.......</p>
