<p>If you can, take them again. People will tell you that they are adequate, which they are, but to insure your best chances, especially if you have the opportunity, take them again. If you can manage 2200+, I think you should have an very easy time with these (and many, many) other schools.</p>

<p>Thanks. What do you think about my ECs and my chances at UPenn though? I know it should be a bit of a stretch...</p>
