<p>just want to say something about ec's.</p>
<p>some students find their passion early on. going against those people, it is extremely difficult. i know one person from my school is applying to stanford ED. extremely intelligent. got recognition in books and tv interviews for raising money for poor vietnam children. she singlely planned an annual piano performance to raise money. she actually flew to new york to accept scholarship for helping to end world poverty. </p>
<p>just want to throw it out there that there are people like that. small percentage, but they exist. </p>
<p>back to the op. definitely a good shot at cornell.</p>
