<p>Smh people like you=/</p>

<p>You have great scores, a great Gpa, ECs and everything. you don’t need us to tell you or chance you.</p>

<p>Most times people will try to deter you from applying to a school because they want to apply there.(one down 100,000 to go) lol</p>

<p>Your set, just keep it up! You should be proud of your accomplishments and things you’ve listed</p>

<p>I would consider retaking SAT, aim for 2250+. Otherwise good…I’m not sure how colleges look at home schoolers differently. btw Penn Wharton is as hard if not harder to get into than HYP. I would consider the college of arts and sciences if you want a better chance of getting in.</p>

<p>How are you a Junior that’s already a NMSF? That’s impossible, so…</p>

5

<p>^ Good point.</p>

<p>But anyway, I was accepted to Penn and Chicago with a 2210, 770 and 780 subject tests, and community service as my main extra curricular. You have nearly identical stats, so I’d say that with great essays, you’d have a good shot at the schools you listed. I don’t know much about how a homeschooler’s app is reviewed, though.</p>

<p>Best of luck!</p>
