<p>Canadian Asian male, non financial aid
SAT I:2300
SAT II: 3 X 800
Rank:15/500 3%
4~5 not significant activities for 2~4years</p>

<p>do I have a shot in ED?if I do, how big the chance is?</p>

2

<p>Just need a bit of advise.</p>

3

<p>it is most definitely not just about the statistics. the essays are extremely important, and you should probably have been more committed to an activity.. unless you have amazing research somewhere or something.</p>

4

<p>What are the 4-5 activities you did, and are they business related</p>

5

<p>only related activity is a 1 year debate club.</p>

6

<p>I really dont know what kind of activity I can do that is relative to Business, I am in Canada I found out that there are many business relavant activities in the USA that we dont have it in Canada
(for high school).
And can you guys give me a brief direction of my essay? I really want to make it impressive and helpful</p>

7

<p>Solid shot, but don't count on it. Wharton's extremely competitive. :)</p>

8

<p>fluent 3 languages, will that help?</p>

9

<p>if you are fluent in three languages and would like to combine that with a study of business, then you should consider the huntsman program at penn. </p>

<p>your language proficiency and stats would probably make you a very competitive candidate.</p>

10

<p>but I wanna study finance....</p>

<p>Well there's your solution. </p>

<p>You get a BA in international studies from College and a BS in Econ from Wharton. And you're required to pick a concentration for the Wharton degree.</p>

<p>Thank you guys, I think I will try my best and apply ED to Wharton, and if I cant make it I will just go to Stern, UCB or MichiganRoss</p>

13

<p>Oh you will JUST go there will ya :P</p>

<p>btw there are plenty of business activities in Canada, so that's not a valid excuse- you're just too lazy to look for them</p>

14

<p>I agree. You seem lazy.</p>

<p>Umm..if you don't get into Wharton, you may not get into those schools, which are equally competitive.</p>

15

<p>Equally competitive...not quite. But the other schools are pretty competitive too.</p>

16

<p>uh, wait, future... did you get into wh from the getgo and are going there now? or not attending at all...</p>

17

<p>Why exactly is that important, or even relevant?</p>

18

<p>well i got the impression that you're affiliated w/ the school now since you know things about it and are trying to help wharton applicants. but your username seems to indicate that you want to go to nyu/want to transfer there/wanted to go there and are no longer going there or something. just wondering.</p>
