<p>I know a million people post these, but...any help is appreciated.
Btw, this is what I said in my applications, but not necessarily what I want to do (e.g. recently, I've given good thought on becoming a doctor).</p>

<p>Applied: Materials Science and Engineering</p>

<p>SAT (best): 700 CR 720 M 730 W
SAT II: Bio 690 Math I 750 Math II 800 Chem 750
AP: BC Calc 5, Statistics 5, U.S. History 4</p>

<p>Grades: (first quarter, Senior year)

AP Macroeconomics B+
AP Biology B
AP Chemistry A
Wind Ensemble A

<p>I'm one year advanced in math, so I'm already done with my math curriculum in school and Graph Theory is an independent study course I'm taking at a local community college with 8 other students also in my position.</p>

<p>Extracurriculars:
Math Team: 4 years (now captain)

<p>I'm an American-born Taiwanese male, if that changes anything also.</p>

<p>pretty good reach</p>

3

<p>Whats your rank?</p>

<p>Penn engineering is a reach, assuming you aren't top 5%</p>

4

<p>My school doesn't rank...but, I know this is a reach.</p>

<p>i dunno, upenn might be looking for more diverse kids (culturally that is). i heard a rumor (dunno if its true) that kids like 1/2 japanese 1/2 american or korean are really well liked. and i dunno about your math for penn engineering.</p>
