<p>We're looking at almost exactly the same schools...what's your whole list?</p>

<p>I'd say your chances are decent, though not great. 4 to 5 percent is a little rediculous. Your SATs and APs are good (and Cornell looks more heavily at test scores than most small LACs), but your ECs are a little lacking, as I think I said in another post. Luckily, since Cornell gets so many apps. every year, they can't possibly weigh this as heavily. Do well on your SATIIs, and I'd say your chances are about 40 percent, which is pretty decent.</p>
