UPenn Early Decision (I'll know in 8 days anyway, so give your prediction a shot)</p>
<p>any reason i'd be deferred at penn other than a low math score? i think that's the only thing that would even have a ghost of a chance of keeping me out. other than that i think i'm a pretty solid candidate. and even with a relatively low math score, will that keep me out of the running for Penn ED entirely?</p>
<p>so despite a slew of other good factors to consider (including penn faculty recs), penn would defer/reject me due to one subpar math score (even though 4% of kids that Penn admits have that score)?</p>
