Cornell is my dream school. I’ve been working in my ED application and I’ve been having panic attacks over the weak points on my application. Here s an overview
SAT (weak point): M720 CR670
GPA: UW 4.0 W 4.79
Course load: several honors courses, by the end of junior year 5 AP by the end of senior year 10 AP. My weak point is that I m doing early release this year so that I can focus on horseback riding. I m really panicking about this because when I talked to my guidance counselor about it last year she said it would be okay if I did something to fill the time (like horseback riding) but now I m starting to regret the decision. I still took hard classes this year to make up for it though.
Sports: like I said earlier horseback riding (20+ hours a week)
Other extra curricular: VERY involved with local equine 4h group(awards win through them as well as numerous volunteer hours)
Annual oral presentation completion
NHS
These are the main ones, there s a few other minor extra curriculars that aren’t worth mentioning here
I’m applying for the college of agriculture and life sciences. I want to major in animal science. I know what I want to do and am truly passionate about it do I’m hoping this will come through in my essay and help me.
