Work Hard and be willing to push yourself beyondAug 15 2018Biology
Work Hard and be willing to push yourself beyond what you think possible, this will help you when you go out in the workforce. Also, try to avoid drugs and alcohol, college campuses nationwide are becoming more and more unsafe and it gets east to put your studies off and party but if you want to do this then you probably should stay at home and save money

I had good test scores and grades and wrote a personal statement from the heart. I was also very involved in extra-curricular activities as a high school student. Service is also very important to Cornell and will improve your chances of getting in.
