<p>yea emoyewole, you could try adding at least 1 ivy in there. i am not a pro myself but i can recall a former student in my school with similar sat scores who applied to Upenn and got into SEAS. his hook: he had a load of ECs. Nyways r u applyin for fall 2009 academic year? Then u've gotta hurry since most of the top school deadlines are around now. the orphanage work in romania sounds interesting. i suppose you could use it in your essays. Good Luck!</p>
