<p>i probably dont have a long list like many other people but I think my activities are pretty concentrated.</p>

<p>my weakness is really my freshman and sophomore year grades.
Freshman: chinese grades, and its like half As and half Bs(the grades are base solely on final exams. they have a different system, so i dont know how the Adcom is gonna look at this)
Sophomore: wasnt great. not great classes and a 90 on english, a 89 on my media class(semester course) </p>

<p>Im still deciding between princeton scea or huntsman/wharton ed
Im a princeton legacy so I really dont want to give up the advantage, i will be really happy if i can go to princeton for econ
but I really like the huntsman program(mostly because of wharton)</p>

<p>please chance me or give my advices! thanks</p>

<p>ehh…somebody say something</p>

3

<p>Not a very strong chance, in my opinion. Particularly because of where you live and your background.</p>

4

<p>Everyone is off actually attending Penn.</p>

5

<p>what do you mean? too many chinese applying?</p>

<p>i like your chances; go with princeton if you have legacy though. i find older institutions tend to take legacy into great consideration. you definitely have the business/econ ECs going on which will help you a great deal.</p>

<p>chance me back for penn seas!</p>

7

<p>Yeah and the fact that youre from NJ, but if that’s where youre set on going, then apply either way cause you never know. you definitely have a stronger chance with princeton though.</p>

8

<p>Id say princeton coz legacy matters a great deal at Ivy league .</p>
