<p>Chance me
I'm a Junior
I'm 13th in my class top 5% GPA is at least 3.7
I got a 158 on my psats (currently taking sat prep class so i'm betting that will go up)
I'm in a engineering program<br>
I do oratoricals competitions in one of them I got 1st place in another I got 2nd
I have plenty community service hours
I plan on being in honors society by may
I take AP Calc AB this year and plan on doing several more APs next year
I'm on varsity track and field (I throw the jav and discus)
And that is pretty much it</p>
<p>oh and all my other classes are equivalent to honors courses (more respected though)</p>
<p>Have you taken the ACT or SAT?</p>
<p>Well not yet, but I’m in SAT prep so I can tell you an pretty accurate approximation I’m getting a 1700 easy but by time I’m done studying for it I plan on getting a 1960 my over all GPA for high school however is a 3.65 and I want to know does being African American make a difference I’m thinking about applying to U Penn so what do you think?</p>
<p>Oh and Of course I also want to apply to Harvard</p>
<p>Well, your scores and grades are your weakpoints. I suggest getting deeply involved with extracuriculars, and stay involved, not because ogf Harvard but because you are passionate!</p>
