<p>You are asking the wrong question. Is your fit to Cornell better than your fit to any other school or any other Ivy (if you are limiting yourself to those). There are students who would get into Harvard but not into Cornell. The issue is the extent to which what you have to offer the school is what they are looking for. The fact that a particular school accepts a higher percent of their applicants compared to another school does not mean it will be easier for you to gain admission to that school over others. </p>
