Looking at everyone getting into cornell is soo cool. I just really want the same experience since Cornell is like my top choice for college, and I am a junior so I do have the time.

School: I go to one of the top schools in my state
Want to apply to Cornell AAP
GPA: 3.877 UW, 4.1+ W (my school has not given me my W GPA yet so I’m just guessing, my weighted GPA will be given to me in May.)
Classes: Will take 10 APs by the end of my senior year of High School.
SAT: 1470 (took it before junior year) and I am taking it again in May becuase I think I can get 1500+ with some prep
Demographics: Asian female
ECs: I’m on the journalism team for my school (all 4 years)
I do math club and environment club, and am the president for both.
I also compete in some of the common conferences, like TSA and FBLA which are just competitive event clubs at my school. I have about 10 awards from these.
I have done an internship before with a really small architecture firm in the city where I live in. It wasn’t major, I just went to the company on Monday and Friday and did some simple accounting work and I was not paid for it. I just recently stopped going because it was a little stressful for me.
I did some research outside of school and competed in this conference and I got a few awards.
I also volunteer a lot for a church and I do some work with elementary school students.

Summer: I applied for the Cornell Architecture summer program and I got in. I think that I will be attending (haven’t fully paid for anything yet, but just think so).
Income bracket: More than $200,000 per year, so won’t receive fin aid.

Sorry for the long post! I just really hope that any of you can give me some tips for my architecture school portfolio, and chance me. Thanks!
