<p>I have applied/am applying as a business/law major.</p>

<p>Caucasian Male, PA</p>

<p>GPA
Unweighted: 3.985
Weighted: 4.164</p>

<p>Rank
2/246</p>

<p>Test Scores
SAT
1470/2140: 740 M / 730 R / 670 W
SAT 2
Math I:710 BioE:600
Can I retake these in January of Senior year?
AP: Enviro(5), World History (3), English Language and Composition(N/A), Calc AB (N/A), U.S. Government and Politics (N/A)</p>

<p>Classes:
All Honors classes taken that were available. Only APs offered and not taken were Bio and Music Theory. Not interested and Music theory and I could was either Bio or Calculus. My World History teacher did a very poor job so I opted to take Bio instead. Obviously, not having taken an AP class in bio hurt my SAT II score. </p>

<p>If you’ve got legacy at cornell, and if you’re applying ED, i don’t think you need to worry about those scores. if you for some reason get denied, i would retake in january.</p>

<p>Well, the school in Cornell that I applied to only wants my Math1, CR and M scores, so im 700+ across the board for Cornell. Im just praying that I get into Cornell b/c my SAT II scores will bite me in the a** at Penn. I’m too average for Princeton so I would just be hoping for a miracle there.</p>
