The different colleges at Cornell have different stat ranges. That’s the big secret about Cornell undergraduate admissions.

There isn’t just one admissions office. Every college handles it on its own and each one is looking for something different.

We don't have a way of knowing that at our school.

Both my kids admitted ED from DC catholic schools. Here is their range of stats which I think is indicative of the range of kids that Cornell admits:

Kid 1. 34 ACT 3.7 UW
Kid 2. 1580 SAT 4.0 W

It really only matters what the scattergram looks like at your school, OP.
