| Based upon all of the postings, it doesnt seem like there is necessarily a gpa or sat score that necessarily mean you are in or out. Cornell seems to be a university that really does look at the applicantions as a whole. It seems like many accepted applicants are in the top 10% of their class (at least) and have SAT/ACT scores that are in the 90th percentile. In addition, most applicants seem to have taken challenging courses while in high school. Even if you meet or surpass those numbers, it doesnt mean you are in. If you are below those numbers, it doesnt mean you are out. You need to demonostrate that you have something to offer the major that interests you. If you are deficient in some way (scores/gpa) you need to make sure that you make up for it in other ways. |
