<p>I think I have a strong essay.. I got it checked by like 20 people now haha.
Oh I also incorporated the explanation for the low gpa/class rank in the essay.</p>
<p>I'm taking General Biology right now.. a dual-enrolled class offered through governor's school. So maybe that should help.. I'm using my various experiences in a bio lab for my supplementary essay.</p>
<p>How much of a chance do I have? taking into consideration the fact that I'm an international not applying for FA.. (this makes a huge difference, right?) I really want to go to UPenn! Thanks! Any inputs will be appreciated.</p>
