<p>Just like any other guys, I really really really really really want to go to Penn. Please comment on my chances.</p>
<p>Korean citizen !! attending school in States</p>
<p>APPLYING to College of Arts and Science</p>
<p>GPA: 3.8
SAT2s: math2 : 710 physics: 690
SAT: 2240 ma800 cr710 wr730</p>
<p>classes taken: Mostly honors and AP classes. Didnt do well on AP tests therefore not sending scores.</p>
<p>recs:
one from my history teacher who seems to love me profoundly (I literally had juniors come to me several times asking me how the teacher always talks about my ways of viewing history)
another from my calculus teacher who is in charge of the varsity chess team. Im currently the captain (first board) of the team and have been with the team for a long time so I've been to his house alot and have been to alot of places with him. He is my teacher, coach and friend.
One from Penn professor who teaches PH.D students at penn. He is also an associate dean of a department of Penn. I took his course over the summer which was not meant to be for highschoolers but I received the highest grade in class. He volunteered to write me a letter of recommandation.</p>
<p>essay: Still working on them.</p>
<p>Extra curriculars:</p>
<p>President, youth department of local church
-president, soccer analysis club
-captain, varsity chess team
-assiatent coach of school's varsity team (Was a varsity player during sophomore year but the state regulations dont let foreign students play in the league so coach placed me in my coaching position)
-manager, website. The website I manage deals with cellphones and other electric devices. It is a informative webpage (non profit) and has 20000 officially registered members (officially means it requires the Korean social security number to register)
-Internet business over Korean ebay (With my brother)- Game device sales. Net profit of $10000. All profits were used to pay portion of my brother's college tuition.
-Dedicated ( 200hours each summer) community service over summers for the people with mental illness. Taught kids who had mentall illness.
-Penn college course taken during summer. Rank number 1 in class and received scholorship</p>
<p>Is the rec from the professor have a good deal of effect in my admission? How should I work on my resume about the internet business so I dont look like a money crazy capitalist? What are my chances?</p>
<p>I thank you all in advance !!!! =)</p>
