<p>You have a pretty good shot at Stern, but I can't say the same for Wharton, AEM, or MSB. MSB, even though it isn't a very good/well-known/highly ranked business school, has a relatively low acceptance rate compared to others. Wharton and AEM are the most competitive. However, since you are an underrepresented minority, you may have a shot.</p>
<p>I would raise those SAT scores and GPA. 1970 is low.</p>
<p>haha im so sick of people saying scores in the 1900s and even higher are too low. your ec list is kind of too much, take off who's who, it's just one of those scams and they will surely know it.</p>
<p>I think most of the students applying to those schools(especially wharton) are going to be exceptional(many will have 2100+). That's why yanarchy said your scores are low. Clearly a 1970 is a very high score compared to scores of the majority of test takers. </p>
<p>You're applying to wharton as a freshman, so your high school grades and standardized test scores will carry a lot of weight.</p>
<p>IMO your minority status and your EC's will get you in- almost a gauranteed admission with your current stats as long as you don't f**k up your first semester GPA. Upenn loves black people. But to be safe, i say retake it or take the ACT and try to get a higher score.You don't want to look back on this when you receieve a rejection letter and ask yourself "What if i had retaken the SAT''. You know what I mean?</p>
