I'm in a similar case like yourself and after countless hours of mom's jansori, sending e-mails to current Cornell students/graduates, and sobbing under the pillow, I have realized that there really is no 'chance' to do when 95% of the applicants have the similar grade and Phenomenal Extra curricular activities....so let's just work on the essays...and hopefully stand up for gamun's glory
