<p>I would like to congratulate you on your superb formatting. It makes this so much easier :)</p>
<p>While you don't have any stellar EC's, you're definitely a solid candidate especially considering your heritage. </p>
<p>Best of luck!</p>
<p>don't you need a few more SAT II's for Cornell? correct me if I'm wrong.
But an URM, with good scores/ec's. I say a very good chance. >70%</p>
<p>^^^^I applied to Cornell's ILR (School of Industrial and Labor Relations), so applicants only have to do 1 SAT II.</p>
<p>^^ my bad. I just remember all their insane requirements when I wanted to apply. but my chance still stands</p>
<p>Ha, you're right- we do have a lot in common.
I'd say its a low reach school, but Cornell's the type of university that you no one is guaranteed for. Good Luck!</p>
<p>I'd say you're average... so I say around a 20% chance.</p>
<p>I would say that you would have a solid chance, so definitely apply! Your SATs are good and you have a wide variety of extra curriculars and good recommendations =)</p>
<p>The only things I would say are that your SAT scores and your UW GPA seem a little low. They still are stellar, just not exactly at the level Cornell usually receives so that may work against you. Your extracurriculurs are nice but nothing is really popping out at me. I'd probably say you're probably about average but no one can ever know at any of the Ivies.</p>
<p>well as for all of the IVY league schools for anyone, its a stretch, cornell admits 25% of its applicants, so you start with a 25% chance, but i think you have about a 40% chance or even a 50/50 shot. But other good places like USC or Emory would probably accept you.
good luck</p>
