<p>Nice work lolpear. As a current Penn student, I think you’re on track with almost everything. Except possibly the GPA (what is your class rank?). But despite this, I think you have a solid shot (I had a similar GPA and I got in!). </p>

<p>You’re doing everything right-so keep working hard when you get into college. Once in college, by focusing on GPA a little more, you should develop a great, all-around resume/application (for grad school and whatnot). </p>

<p>Actually, a Penn student has recently written a book about attaining a high GPA in high school/college. You should check it out:</p>

<p>[Amazon.com:</a> The Ivy League 4.0 eBook: Vineet Patil: Kindle Store](<a href=“http://www.amazon.com/The-Ivy-League-4-0-ebook/dp/B0030IM73C/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1262238152&sr=8-1]Amazon.com:”>http://www.amazon.com/The-Ivy-League-4-0-ebook/dp/B0030IM73C/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1262238152&sr=8-1)</p>

<p>You don’t need a kindle to read it, and it really helped me out!</p>

<p>You have good chances at all of them.</p>

<p>JHU: 80%
UCB: If your are in-state 90%, out-state 70% or less (they almost got every student from CA. But you are definetely a great student as I can see.
PENN: 75%</p>

<p>Chance me back please:
