<p>Just wondering, where can you see a USNews ranking of high schools? There's no mention of it on their website, where did you hear it?</p>

3

<p>i'd say you're in penn, so don't even worry about the others. with your high scores (especially SAT IIs) and the fact that they're recruiting you... it's almost a guarantee IMO.</p>

4

<p>the USNews thing was out in their magazine about a year ago. the way they did the rankings was based on the number of AP classes offered, the number of AP's kids took, and how well the students scored.</p>

<p>does anyone else have an opinion on my chances? please?</p>

5

<p>bump...anyone?</p>

6

<p>I'm pretty sure the ranking you're talking about was done by Newsweek, not USNews.</p>

<p>In at Penn. Recruit + great scores + nice GPA = you're golden.</p>

<p>wow getting recruited by penn is amazing! i wish i could help ya there with your chances but i'm not sure myself (as u saw by my post). i'm pretty sure you have an awesome chance at all of them though! good luck!</p>

14

<p>thank you guys so much! i really do love penn and hope that i get in there early. but just in case i get deferred (god forbid), could anyone comment on my chances at my RD schools? i wont be getting recruited by anyone but penn, so im pretty sure that will lower my chances at the other schools...</p>

<p>Even if you're not getting recruited by any other schools, it sounds like you'll be able to compete for them. Drop the coach a line and say you want to do crew for their school.
I have a good friend that just signed early for track with Penn a few weeks ago and his stats weren't ANYWHERE near as impressive as yours (though he finished 2nd in New Englands this past year in the 800). If you're being recruited by a school, you're in (at least I hope so for my sake :p)</p>

<p>Looks good.</p>
