<p>Unfortunately I have not had a chance to visit an information session for Cornell. I have yet to schedule my visit, so I’ll definitely look into as I plan my visit.</p>
<p>While I have definitely been more interested in Penn for a while now, I’m starting to realize Cornell is a more realistic school for me and gradually Cornell is becoming my first choice. I think I can get a better idea specifically about what interests me at the school when I visit, and I’ll be sure to talk to as many faculty members as possible. I feel that having a better understanding of their engineering program will let me better reflect upon that in my essay.</p>
<p>As for the standardized test scores, I know they are rather low in comparison. For the SAT I, I know Cornell does not look at the writing, so it’s actually just the 1410 Math-Verbal that matters. Unfortunately I’m not able to take both Math II and the reasoning test before the ED deadline. That’s why I’m taking the SAT, in hopes of scoring high enough so that I won’t have to take the SAT again (I’ll still take Math II again no matter what). If I don’t feel as if I’m ready for ED, I’ll simply wait for RD.</p>
<p>If I score, say a 34 on the ACT and then a 770 on the Math II, would I be in a relatively good position to apply for ED?</p>
