<p>What would be my chances at Brown ED, Cornell Engineering ED, and UPenn Engineering ED?? Please be honest. Thank you so much!
I think my Test Scores, Extracurriculars, and Courseload are all solid but my GPA is lacking</p>
<p>Note: I am one year ahead in math for my school and also took an AP in sophomore year which our school does not usually allow. I also moved to the school in my freshman year and I took AB Calculus because of scheduling conflicts and self studied for the BC Test.</p>

<p>Recommendations:
-Counselor Rec: we are closer than most students-counselors. She probably talked about how I am very proactive because I did all this stuff to take classes and stuff that our school usually did not permit</p>
<p>-Teacher Rec: Junior Math Teacher/Swim Coach wrote a very good personal rec about how I lead the swim team, perform in class, and transitioned from my move (California to NJ) </p>
<p>-Teacher Rec: Sophomore Math Teacher: Probably wrote about how I did pretty well in her class. Really nothing special; pretty weak rec tbh.</p>
<p>-Additional Rec: engineering professor at Rutger: was our project adviser at governor's school and mentored me for Siemens: pretty good rec i guess but not too personal</p>
<p>I did badly my freshman and junior year and did well my sophomore and am doing well in senior year. I got 1 B, 1 B+ freshman year and 3 B+'s junior year :'(</p>
