<p>hey guys. My friend got 1990 on SAT and get into Cornell. How do u think about that? I 100% sure that he doesn’t have any special talent or activity. He played some sports, took some APs, got good GPA (around 3.8), and got into cornell. Can I get in? (SAT - 2090 –> I will take again (Im junior) , SATII MATH IC (800) –> plan to take few more , Track (Captain) , Varsity Fencing, several clubs (presidnet in one) , summer research, etc…</p>
<p>ONE MORE…!! Do u know BA/MD 7-year program? If so, do u think Cornell is thougher? compare to Sophie Davis or Stony Brook 7-year?</p>
<p>Wow, the grammar errors in this post…</p>
<p>well, I got into Cornell and Sophie Davis. I think that Sophie Davis seems like a tougher program compared to Cornell, but this is only judging from the current students that i’ve spoke to. It seemed like Cornell leaves more time to go and hang out with your friends than Sophie Davis does.</p>
<p>oh and btw, about you comparing your SAT’s to your friends who got into Cornell… There really isn’t a definite way of getting into a school. It’s also about your essay, how you present yourself during your interview. It’s not just about numbers on a sheet of paper, and you’ll see kids who may have lower scores than you who get into “better” schools. College admittance is very subjective and as black and white as you may think.</p>
<p>yah, numbers aren’t good… for example, i could tell you that i have a 2400 SAT and got waitlisted at cornell… if cornell wailisted or rejected every applicant that had a 2400 or below… i don’t know what their freshman class would look like</p>
<p>they wouldn’t have a freshman class because everyone scores 2400 and below. Unless you take the ACT instead :)</p>
