But I would like to get a slightly more in-depth opinion. With my current stats (and hopefully broke 1400 out of 1600 on the SAT) do you think I can get into the Macaulay program? Any tips you can give me? I have 4 letters of recommendation. 3 of them being VERY personal and in depth (considering these 3 people have known me very well for the last 4-5 years)

Andy I would suggest you contact Macaulay, as I am not qualified to give an opinion.

Bumping again to see if anyone knows about the Cornell program?

I emailed Cornell about this program and received this reply:

"I am afraid our NSF funding has ended and 2009 was our final summer for this program. I hope you son can find another relevant research program."

Bummer.

Wow I half- applied to the Cornell research program and figured I would just apply next year. I was really excited about this . Try checking out the Summer Programs section in the High School area, there are more posts about this in there.
