<p>Hey is it alright if you don't have Calculus AB if your school doesnt offer it?</p>
<p>Wharton really wants AB. If everything else is okay, and that's the only thing holding you back, they may contact you and encourage you to take it in the summer. If you accept, you'll likely get in.</p>
<p>Post deleted because I found a lot of people's comments in other threads after more detailed searching.</p>
<p>hey I think that collegekids "formula" or whatever may work in most cases, not just for URMs though.</p>
<p>Anyway, I would still suggest setting your mentallity to "No color vision" so that you don't become comfortable and just relax while relying the whole minority thing and think that you'll still get into Penn, or any top school for that matter.
Btw- I'm an African american as well in a similar situation. I'm applying this year though.</p>
<p>---my two cents</p>
<p>WAIT...., I had only read the first page before writing the above post, ignore the first two lines. I realize that there are sooooooo amny more things that affect the adcoms when they make there decisions. There is no qualifying standard.</p>
