<p>Teacher Recommendations: One from Honors and AP Spanish teacher which will be excellent, another from AP US History teacher which will be great to excellent.
Guidance counselor recommendation will also be good to great.</p>

<p>My Penn essay is pretty strong, but my CommonApp is probably about average for an Ivy League school.</p>

<p>FYI, I'm a caucasian male from a public, suburban school in New York</p>

<p>Near perfect SAT I, 5’s on every AP you took, loads of varsity letters, leadership positions, & volunteer work… I think you have a very good chance.</p>

<p>thanks for the reply!</p>

<p>btw I am also a member of NHS and Foreign Language Honor Society</p>

<p>solid chance, ur a great applicant but there many like you i’d say 35-40% chance</p>

<p>if u were a legacy id say in 80% because thats HUGE ED, but nevertheless ur a strong applicant and well rounded</p>

<p>thanks mjx, i know that the sad reality of the situation is that without legacy, an applicant like me is still at a relatively low percentage</p>
