<p>u'd better raise those scores a lottt if u wanna go to upenn
ur gpa is pretty good for marlboro tho..i heard its pretty competitive with all those asians there
and whats funk dancing</p>

<p>lol, only my parents want me to go to Upenn. Somehow they think I'll make it in...</p>

<p>Which scores do I need to improve on? I no the writings horrible but there was this big fire drill really messed up the multiple choice section. Based on practice tests, I score from the low to high 700s. As for the math, I learned a lot more strategies on "how to really take an SAT" and am pretty positive i can improve my score a bit.</p>

<p>funk dancing...I really don't no how to explain it. Its a hip hop dance style back in the 70s and 80s, and, as far as my knowledge goes, I'm the only one who dances it in the class of 2007. Type "salah" or "electric boogaloo" on Youtube if you want a visual.</p>

<p>Also, what about my other colleges, do I have a chance for those?</p>
