Chances at UPenn

<p>Hello, I am a junior interested in applying to UPenn ED. I am interested in my chances of admission, as well as any other schools that people think would be good fits. The following are my statistics. </p>

<p>-Grades:</p>

<p>Freshman year:
Geometry: A
French II: A
English 9: A
History 9: A
Physics 9: A</p>

<p>Sophomore Year:
Alg. II and Trig: A
French III: A
English 10: A
History 10: A
Honors Chem: A</p>

<p>Junior Year:
Advanced Pre-Calc: most likely A, but maybe A-
AP French IV: A or A-
English 11: A
History 11: A
AP Chem: A-</p>

<p>Weighted GPA around 4.1-4.2</p>

<p>My courses for next year are:
AP Calc AB, AP French V, AP Bio, English 12, and Government.</p>

<p>Testing:
This is my weak spot. I did not do as well as i'd hoped on the SAT's, but here they are anyway</p>

<p>CR 660
Math 690
Writing 790</p>

<p>I plan to retake them in October, and I foresee a 2100 or above.
I am taking the AP exams in French and Chem. I will most likely get a 4 in French and a 4 or a 5 in Chem.</p>

<p>For my SAT II's, I am taking Math IIC, French,and Chemistry, but I do not have my scores back yet. </p>

<p>Extracurriculars:</p>

<p>-Community Service Program Manager of my high school
-Began a politics club in the beginning of the year
-Grade representative for Admissions Program
-Volunteer with a political campaign
-Varsity Soccer 10, 11, 12 grades
-summer intern at a law firm last summer
-community service participant
-...etc. I can elaborate if needed</p>

<p>Also, I am a white female at a prestigious private school in connecticut. </p>

<p>Thank you!</p>

<p>oh and on the SAT part, I meant to say that I foresee a 1400 or above on CR+Math.</p>

<p>bump......</p>

<p>you definitely have to raise your SATs, and IMO, penn cares more about outstanding ECs than grades so make at least one of your ECs really shine (you might've done this already and have not elaborated on it)</p>

<p>what score would i need to raise my SAT's to in order to be a strong candidate?</p>

<p>ideally, CR and math both need to be at least in the 700s, preferably 720+</p>

<p>and make sure you do well on your SAT IIs! 700+</p>
