<p>i’m applying to cornell, boston university, syracuse, binghamton, buffalo, stony brook.</p>

2

<p>Cornell: Major Reach
BU: Smaller Reach</p>

<p>Not sure about the rest.</p>

3

<p>major reach meaning what, i shouldnt apply?</p>

4

<p>basically…cornell will be…difficult…i’d say you have about a 1 in a 1,000,000 chance…not to be mean or nethin…but yeah…they accept ppl with around a 3.85-4.0+ and between a 1290-1400+</p>

5

<p>i had a friend with a 94 average and around 1000 sat score who was admitted, would you have considered him to be a major reach?does essay and recs improves changes?</p>

6

<p>I’d say this is how they do it…They’ll look at ure GPA and if you did outstanding and had a wonderful essay they’ll let you in…Extracurriculars help as well…depending on what level they’re on…say you won a state/national award…very good…if you don’t have over a 3.2 you won’t get in</p>

7

<p>it looks like you have excellent ec’s but that will only take you so far. but if you write excellent essays, who knows.</p>

8

<p>Don’t waste your money on Cornell. It is too big of a reach for you.</p>

9

<p>definately</p>

10

<p>if you really wanna go to Cornell…get a 4.0 for ure first 3 semesters of college, write an awsome essay, get an interview with the dean, do mad extracurriculars in school, and transfer</p>

11

<p>im not waisting my money i get a free waiver</p>
