<p>Hello, I am a high school junior entering my senior year, class of 2015. I am a softball recruit, and was wondering my chances of getting in to cornell. I am a Native American girl, of Tuscarora (NY) and Shasta (CA) descent. I hold a 3.65/3.89 GPA. I have taken the sat and my essay score was an 11/12. I took two AP's this year and will be taking 4 next year. I raise guide dog puppies, have volunteered about 78 hours, an 8 yr member of 4-H, a 2 yr student council member, Speech and debate member, JV/Frosh Basketball player, Varsity lacrosse player, a black belt in Tae Kwon Doe, an attendee of 2 Stanford Softball camps, a Gifted and Talented Stanford program member, a member of the American Indian science foundation with Intel, an attendee of a local environmental science camp, and a volunteer at a local daycare. I plan to apply and major in Environmental science, and then attend law school so I can protect y people's rights on the Klamath river. What are my chances of getting in?i also am a member of the rifle team.</p>
