What is your intended major? AP Test score? Any SAT subject tests?

One of my seniors applied to Cornell on Early Decision and got in. His resume was very impressive, but what struck me most was that it was very cohesive too. He clearly only did things he was passionate about. Your GPA is amazing. But that SAT score needs to come up. Also, if you have done anything very specific as part of the student council or senior committee, that would literally multiply your chances.

Overall though, I think your resume is good though.
