give me some advice everyone!!</p>
<p>Are you a girl? That would be a plus. The whole '800 on Korean SAT II' doesn't say much since you're Korean.</p>
<p>You've done a lot with the limited amount of time you've been in school.</p>
<p>There is nothing on your list of 'stuff' that shouts, "MATH SCIENCE ENGINEERING", besides the 800 and 700. But, I'm sure you have more things to add.</p>
<p>yeah, I would think that getting a good score on the korean test is a good thing even though miralee is korean. It just shows that she's at least fluent in 2 languages, which says a lot, most others take their languages course in school and you definitely don't get to fluency with that. So taking the korean test is definitely something she could take advantage of. Doesn't 800 in sat 2 english say a lot for anyone who takes it? Why should it be different for koreans?</p>
<p>Your ACT jumps from 28 to 31 somehow. (Without retaking)
In this thread, your SAT Math 2C score is 800. The other one has it at 780. Note that the the latter was posted more recently. Not to mention your whole GPA deal is fishy.</p>

"I adapted from American when I was fifteen, but I don't have citizenship yet, so I am consider as international student."</p>
<p>Sorry for the misunderstanding. I put the score that I hope to get.
I actually haven't take any ACT and SAT subject test yet, and I want to know my chances if I get that score (I figured I will get between 28~31)..because I thought if I just wrote "I haven't take it yet", I will have some what not accurate or get bad chances....is it that bad? I just wanted to know the chance what if I get that score, and I didn't know how all the college confidential worked....I just really wanted to go to Cornell, but didn't take any test yet, and I guess I just wanted to hear good chances from here.</p>
<p>I thought I was u.s. citizen because I adopted from my uncle (u.s. citizen), but then I found out that I am not an u.s. citizen because I am processing on getting green card. I am still not sure that I am international student or u.s. permanent resident.</p>
<p>My GPA is right. My transcrpt isn't saying 4.0 gpa scale, and i thought that gpa is my gpa that colleges are look at. someone wrote that is not make sense, so i asked counselor and he said, my gpa is 3.951.</p>
<p>First of all, calm down. :) Second of all, what is so special about Cornell? You've flipped from Engineering to Ag to Arts and Sciences. While your grades are great, we don't know what kind of high school you went to, and I only see 2 AP classes. And your ACT scores aren't so hot. Your extracurriculars are a little shallow/limited, for lack of a better word. And that's not even to mention the various inconsistencies all over your posts. I don't know what your final application will look like, but I'm going to guess that the odds are against you, despite your very high GPA.</p>
