<p>as for the other two, besides ur internships you dont show much interest in business, the ivies might look at as hes only doing it cause he has an inside. I think some business participation in school would have solidified you chances, that said I think u can do columbia as a high match. Wharton is a crap shoot, horrible odds for everyone but you can do it. I would say low reach bc they are too arbitrary.</p>
<p>To keep short, I think you have a chance at all them. Seeing that you already have corporate connections and internships with companies I think you have a great chance at all the those school; plus your SAT scores are outstanding and you have good extracurricular activities. I wish you luck.</p>
<p>In thinking of starting some sort of business related club (im a junior). Do you think this would help my chances? Any suggestions on types of clubs i could start? thanks</p>
<p>Yes, definitely start a business related club if your school does not have one. It shows initiative and leadership. You still have a lot of time so dont stress too much.</p>
<p>Pretty good shot at these schools, those business-related ECs should be somewhat sufficient for showing interest in the field, and starting up that club will solidify that showing of interest. Test scores are great, so no worries or complaints there. Applying ED to Wharton will help you, but they are still ridiculously (and unpredictably) selective. Everything else looks good. That being said,</p>
<p>Stern- Match
Columbia- High match/low reach
UPenn- Low reach</p>
<p>you have proven to be very active, involved, hard working and balanced. you have amazinggg chances at every one of those schools. from this point on it is only up to chance bro!</p>
<p>Stern- Match
Columbia- High match
UPenn- High match</p>
<p>I'd say you have as strong a shot as anyone else. I would call all these schools matches, but I wouldn't call anyone "in" just because admissions gets somewhat fuzzy.</p>
<p>wow, great stats!
Stern is definitely a match.
For Wharton you never know, but think you would be around a slight reach
Columbia is a high reach for anyone, so there you go</p>
<p>Good luck!</p>
<p>P.S. If you're from the class of'10 we'll be competing against each other for Wharton :P</p>
