What are my chances? How can I improve?

<p>I'm currently a sophomore in high school. I am not a minority, but I am female, if that does anything(?).</p>

<p>I don't really know if it has a major effect on if I'll be considered, but my uncle was the former lacrosse coach for Cornell.</p>

<p>3.8 GPA (By the end of the semester I'll have a 4.1, and by the time I graduate, a 4.3 if I continue to get all A's.)
National Honor Society (aiming for President by senior year)
Key Club - (been involved for 2 years)
Color guard - (2 years, and I will be captain for the next two - junior and senior year)
Weightlifting - 2 years (will continue throughout)
Track & Field - 2 years (will continue throughout)
French club - 2 years (will continue throughout)
Interact club - 2 years (will continue throughout)
Girl Scouts - 10 years
250+ Community service hours</p>

<p>I have taken AP World History and AP American. In math, my only honors class was Honors Geometry, but right now I have a 98% average in Algebra 2, and my teacher told me he was recommending me for an AP Pre-Calc class. I'm currently taking Eng. Hon. 2. I will be taking 4 years of French, and most likely AP French.</p>

<p>SAT: My SAT score was around 1900, but I'm still only a sophomore. I have been studying like crazy and I'm definitely retaking it next year.</p>

<p>I am very interested in Political Science and Government. I was also thinking about maybe majoring in Political Science and minoring in French, or something along those lines. If you could give me some information about Cornell pertaining to these I would be very thankful! :)</p>

<p>Thank you!</p>

<p>Come back again this time next year. But just to give you a brief guide: just do what you love and love what you do. Find something you’re passionate about and participate in activities, events, research etc. For now, don’t worry about colleges.</p>
