580 Physics....

I did absolutely no prep for Physics and ended up with a 580...
I am applying early decision at Cornell. My grades and SATs are strong (2250) and I have an A in AP Physics this year. On the math II subject test I got a 780.
Will this horrible score really hurt my chances?

It's definitely not going to help. If you're applying for engineering, math, or a hard science, it's definitely definitely not going to help.

But it also probably won't kill an otherwise solid application.
