will a 1940 SAT score hurt my chances for cornell

<p>It was my first try, should I try again?
Math-690
Reading-650
writing-600</p>

<p>Uh, yes. Look at the middle 50%.</p>

<p>Yes 10char</p>

<p>Your chances won’t be as high but it doesn’t mean you won’t get in. Ivy Leagues judge holistically. Your SAT scores aren’t even that low. If you have good essays and a decent GPA and ECs, etc… I don’t see why your chances are “ruined.” Good luck!</p>

<p>The short answer is yes.</p>

<p>In reality though, SAT scores are only a small part of an application. Sometimes kids with 2200+ and high GPAs will get rejected from schools like Cornell. Do try again and try to raise your score but honestly it could go either way and we really can’t say if we don’t know anything else about you (GPA, ECs, any hooks, etc).</p>

<p>Yes, chances are hurt significantly but hardly irreparably.</p>

<p>It doesn’t kill your chances completely at all but look at your EC’s if it made up the lost ground that your SATs left open…</p>

<p>Yes. Cornell has a reputation for being strongly quantitative and that quantity is not very high.</p>

<p>Yes that score is very low to get into Cornell unless you EC’s are extraordinary.</p>
