<p>Soooo my main decision at the moment is between Georgetown and Cornell
I absolutely LOVE georgetown bc it's close to my home, i love the location, the campus, everything is perfect, excepttt i'm not sure i have a chance of getting in
I feel like w/ ED, i have a much higher chance of getting into Cornell and it has always been my dream in life to go to an ivy league school, so i wouldn't mind going to Cornell, but when i visited, i wasn't sooo sure about the whole small rural town setting and the extremely cold winters anddd i've heard that although cornell may be the easiest ivy to get into, it has extremely hard coursework, so i feel like Georgetown would be a much better choice for me, but if i do not get in and do Early Action restrictive, then i do not have a chance of getting into Cornell, bc with my grades + sats, i feel like my main shot at getting in would be throuh ED</p>
<p>I have a 91.5 average, which for my school (all girls private) is pretty good and in the range for both schools but SATs i got
720-math
690-CR
680-writing (but apparently gtown+cornell dont look at writing)
and ACT-32 Composite</p>
<p>i took a college course at gtown this past summer and volunteered at their hospital two years ago, so maybe that could help me in their admissions? </p>
<p>my primary extra curriculars include playing the viola (principal of my school), an research internship at the National Institutes of Health, Ceramics, micro-credits club president</p>
<p>i have to pay for the majority of my college tuition myself/by scholarship becauseee noone in my family wishes for me to attend a school other than our state school...its a weird persian thing slash just something annoying about my family where guys are supposed to be better and more successful sooo in my family that would be my two boy cousins who hate studying and will most likely attend the community college or something else very casual and since they don't plan on getting an ivy education at alllllll i'm supposed to 'hold myself back' in a sense and not go either
butttt unfortunately for them, their small minded ideals for my cousins will not be met, bc there is nooooo way i'm holding myself back to match their rediculous mindset because as you see, they think that they have control over me/what i do/where i will go in life anddd i want to prove them wrong by being like HAH even though my entire life you wished for me to not do homework, not succeed, all because you want (my boy cousins) to be better it did NOT work! </p>
<p>and so everytime i think oh i should just take the easy way like most people do, i think of how that's exactly what they want and instead it makes me work even harder bc i want to prove that they couldn't stop me from acheiving my goals hahah my main college essay is going to be about this, but yeahhh so I dont know what to doooo</p>
