<p>Neither of those are even connections in the first place.</p>

<p>Not a chance, sorry. Those are not even legitimate connections.</p>

<p>With legitimate connections: No.</p>

<p>With your connections: lol</p>

<p>Firstly Columbia is an academic institution that attracts the thinnest upper sliver of top performing HS seniors. Your GPA and SAT set you way below that threshold. However, it seems that you still have a great set of tools to have a great college career. However the uber select colleges like Columbia are not realistic for you. Sorry.</p>

<p>I beg to differ. </p>

<p>But no, Rahul, your connections will probably not suffice.</p>

<p>Am not trying to be mean but, no</p>

<p>My older cousin works at Columbia. They paid for her education and her son applyed for the fall and he was turned down. He pretty much would have went to school free because his mom worked their. He is very smart too.</p>
