<p>I think you have a good shot.</p>

<p>Good luck with ED at Penn. Obviously Penn is your first choice.. make sure you know how that works.</p>

<p>Good shot...SAT is slightly low but nothing to worry about. You have challenged yourself, which is good, and you have some good ECs what with the NPR violin thing and governor's school.</p>
