<p>I agree, I think it’s a reach. Maybe try improving your SAT score?</p>

<p>Cornell RD: Reach.</p>

<p>Being in the 75% range of ACT scores makes you a better candidate than most, but you have to understand that ivies are especially critical of who they admit, and they decline people who are on target with everything all of the time. ED would make Cornell a Low Reach IMO.</p>

<p>Best of luck man.</p>

<p>Not too bad, but SATI and SATII limit you. You might need to take another SATII, depending on where exactly you wanna go within Cornell…Reach for now. Reach for now.</p>

<p>It’s a reach. You should not submit your SAT score, and instead submit your ACT score, as it is higher.
Pretty good EC
not sure about gpa but im guessing 95% is around 3.8 maybe?
Anyway, good luck, you have a decent shot.</p>

<p>Chance me please, im not sure how to make a hyperlink to my post…</p>
