<p>I would just like to hear your views on this. I am an international student.

2) Member of the school editorial board.
3) Have won a few prizes in creative writing, have gotten published twice in a national magazine.

<p>Academics-

2) Among the top five hundred in Science Olympiad (National Rank 76)
3) 5th in State Maths Olympiad</p>
<p>Grades-
9th Grade- Rank 2/37
10TH Grade- We have the board exam of five subjects. Four A1s and one A2.
11th Grade- Rank 4/37</p>
<p>Have done community service this summer.</p>
<p>I am also trying to get a novel published. So would this, coupled with a good/great SAT score be enough for Cornell or any other Ivy League college? Or is it too thin and spaced out?</p>
<p>Comments greatly appreciated
Cheers
