| You should definitely get in. Especially if you do well this year and your senior year. |

| Compared to other students applying to top universities in America, your application is mediocre. However, you have a very good chance on gaining admittance IF:-You are able to receive OUTSTANDING recommendations from your teachers and counselors.-You write an outstanding essay that sets you apart from all the other applicants.Basically, what I'm trying to say is that your resume looks similar to that of other applicants applying to Cornell and similar schools. Now you just have to work the parts of your application that will make you different. |
