Ivy League?
To be honest, YES! you have a very good chance at Cornell U. and even better chance at UPENN. When you say very good grades I am assuming mostly A's with a few high B's So, maybe your GPA is around 3.8+, which is very good. However, your SAT scores are not as high as ivy league schools want them to be...They are looking between 720-800 and yours are just a little bit lower but you should be fine because of the extensive amount of activities you have! Those should even help you with a low gpa and low sat scores (for that school i mean). In otherwords, if your GPA is a little bit lower for that school but still high enough to be qualified to get in...then your good!
