Cornell :(

I really want to go to Cornell. Really really.

3.56 169. Retook in Dec. Highly doubt I improved - maybe by a point. Blah softs blah PS. Good LORs. Right out of UG.

So, given that they haven't looked at my app yet, would it help at all to keep them updated? You know, like a letter of continued super interest or something?

A point would be good.

You should be fine: you'll probably hear soon from Cornell.

Of course, an improved retake would put you in the running for better schools, so hopefully you did well! Good luck.

Thanks ya'll, I think now that finals are over I just have so much extra brain space to freak out with. Hopefully you're right :)

Would it be uncouth of me to send some kind of "hey, I'm still really interested letter"? I sent my app in early November.

If you see that 17, you're in good shape.

Also that avatar freaks me out, but still cool.
