<p>A lot of people have been posting their statistics, and I am really curious as to what you guys think my chances are for getting in.</p>

<p>Recommendations should be very good
Everyone that read my essays said they were amazing.</p>

<p>What do you think? Will I see all of you smart people at Cornell next fall, or no? </p>

<p>By the way, the self-service system says they still don't have 1 of my recommendations, but at the bottom it says, "Your application has been forwarded to the admissions staff for review."
Is that a bad sign?</p>

2

<p>im not sure about the last part, but as for your chances you have to be in.</p>

3

<p>i think you have an incredible incredible chance of getting in. i do not know about your last recommendation however...</p>

<p>...GOOD LUCK!</p>

4

<p>Fair chances getting in. Btw, you got 9 AP tests done, since Economics = Macro & Micro (unless you took only one of em)</p>

<p>I would've recommended you to take a Russian language proficiency test, but you already sent your app...</p>

5

<p>^ Honestly, I never even knew those existed.
I wanted to take an AP Russian test, but by the time I found out about it, it was too late.
But yes, you're right, 9 AP tests. </p>

<p>I hope you all are right!</p>

<p>The man I did my internship with emailed me today with the recommendation letter he sent to Cornell, and it was incredible. I really hope they read supplementary letters because I think it will help me a lot. Maybe it will balance out my lowish SAT scores and lack of leadership?</p>

6

<p>My status says the same thing, missing a letter but it's been forwarded for review. I don't think it's a big deal, if we were really missing a letter they probably would have let us know already</p>

7

<p>Oh good! I'm glad someone is in the same position.
My November scores have updated and all, so I'm not as worried about it anymore.</p>

8

<p>i honestly think you'll be waitlisted</p>

9

<p>same thing happened to me. one of my rec was missing, but it said my application was forwarded for review, but few days later, the last rec was in. So probably they didn't or forget to report your rec to your check status account. just be patient and everything will be fine.</p>

10

<p>where does it say forwarded for review? mine doesn't say that yet i don't think...</p>

11

<p>It should say it under SAT II scores.
I called today, and they said that they are still updating stuff this week so no one should worry if theres is not forwarded yet.</p>
