Chance Me / Match Me!
1

<p>I have settled upon applying ED to Penn-Wharton and <em>hopefully</em> the Jerome Fisher M&T Program.</p>

<p>Objective Stuff:
GPA: 4.47/4.5 (At end of Sr. Year likely) current 4.45/4.5... (at a decent Public)
UW something like 3.97/4.0
Rank: Nothing official, guessing based on GPA+ Others' ~Top 2/250
AP's: All school has offered-> AP Euro (5), AP Chem (5), AP Physics B (5* Predict), AP USH (5* Predict), AP Lit (4* Predict).
SAT: 2400 Superscore (2380 Single Sitting): 2300 (800 800 700) 1st, then (780 800 800)
SATII: Chem: 800 Math II: 800 Physics: Waiting on, Bio: 7xx don't remember.</p>

<p>SR Year Courseload:
AP Psych
AP Bio
AP Calc BC
AP Lang
Engineering Honors
Honors French 5</p>

<p>Subjective:
Race: Indian
Gender: M
Income: >200k
State: MA
EC's: Founder and President of Business Club. Varsity Tennis (don't know about captain)- all right state ranking. Varsity Golf (not going to be captain). Both sports throughout High School. NHS. Mu Alpha Theta (Officer next year), Judicial Council Representative, Academic Decathlon Vice-President, Math Team Varsity. Ping Pong Club. etc.</p>

<p>Summer Activities:
9th->10th: Summer Program at Yale (Explo). Also Golf and Tennis camp, nothing really academic.</p>

<p>10th-> 11th: Internship Paid at Biotech Lab in Richmond Va. More Golf and Tennis.</p>

<p>11th-> 12th: Service Trip for a week, maybe do internship again in Richmond or get a job (that's what mom wants =D)</p>

<p>Perceived Strengths:
Test Scores, GPA, Internship? + Rec's will be strong </p>

<p>Weaknesses:
Lacking Business EC's
EC's little lacking in substance/unfocused/cookiecutter?</p>

<p>Penn is a reach for everyone. Your stats really wowed me tho, so hopefully it will wow the admissions dudes as well. Like everyone said, essays are huge, and they can make or break your chances.</p>

<p>You have very nice academics, but while your extracurriculars are decent, they’re not as strong as they could be. Penn is a reach, but applying ED may help, and make sure to work hard on your essays.</p>

7

<p>Focus on your leadership activities, don’t worry too much about having business ECs. Also, M&T is an incredibly competitive program so make sure you have a good essay for that</p>

8

<p>Low reach.</p>
