sybbie719, resist the urge to apply to Yale - it’s a total waste of money (if you have no chance). Many people told me to apply to MIT and Harvard just because I scored well on the SAT - but they’re uninformed. I did apply to Cornell ED (Engineering) and got in. Good luck with Cornell. Did you apply early and get deferred, or haven’t applied yet? If the former, you should apply to less selective schools.

All the ivies are great for biology and pre-med. Biology is supposedly one of Cornell’s specialties.
