So I’m a high school senior appying ED to Cornell University in the fall. It is by far my highest reach school, hence it is the only school I am applying ED for.

But since it is definietly “up there” for me (Mexican-American Male with a 2100 SAT and 3.83 weighted GPA ) I’m in need of some advice for choice of major.

To put it bluntly, I have lots of interests. Potentially too many. However, chief among those are my desire to work with people or animals. So I’m having to choose between applying to the School of Human Ecology and/or Agricultural Science.

Here are all of the majors in each college I am potentially interested in and of these majors, which would you think would be the easiest to get into?;

College of Agricultural Sciences;

Animal Science
Developmental Sociology
Ecology and Evolutionary Biology
Entomology
Information Science
Marine Biology

College of Human Ecology;

Human Biology/Health/Society
Human Development
Policy Analysis and Management

Thanks to those who respond and offer advice to a troubled senior. Muchas Gracias :)
