<p>Hey everyone, </p>
<p>You've probably seen me as an applicant for UPenn ED Wharton, but that's a friend of mine who also shares this account (Altruition). Here are my stats and schools:</p>

GPA: 83/100
School: very competitive, we've sent out kids to the Ivies every year, and a Yale rep even came to our school this year. Crazy stuff.
