I just said that my projected scores are over 24 because I wanted to state the fact that I will be getting my IB Diploma.
My EE is on how Standardized tests are not an applicable tool in education. Basically I sight all its downfalls and relate it to my personal situation. My thesis is pretty much that standardized tests, with their inherent flaws, do not accurately represent general intelligence or future success on the college level. I think that this topic is especially relevent because my SAT scores are not the best they could be. This is due to my test anxiety.
TOK is alright, I guess. At my school, we have it everyother day. It is interesting but at times the discussions of philosophical topics can get dull and boring.

Cornell is my reach. I know that, it was just that i thought i should apply because i liked it. Plus, I have nothing to lose in simply applying.
