<p>scores are enough, anyone thats telling you to increase ur SAT’s 2300 is simply yanking ur chain.</p>

<p>however, now its time to take the whole pile of activities you have and find one that you are actually PASSIONATE about, one activity you are doing not because you think it will enhance your chances but you actually enjoy doing. That way, you will distinguish yourself from the crowd.</p>

<p>Are you applying for Financial Aid, because I heard that will affect the admission decisions.</p>

<p>Other than that, good luck, you certainly have a chance.</p>

<p>^^^the above is all right except the part about financial aid. Penn is need blind. On their website they state this, and also say 81% of their class has received some sort of financial aid.</p>

<p>Please take a course in English reading and writing. Whether or not you get in, the international or ESL students at Penn (and other Ivies) are VERY adept at English, and your ability to succeed at Penn will be affected by your ability to read and write English.</p>

<p>Graduate school is a different story.</p>
