<p>I don’t want to rub salt into an open wound but lower your expectations. Low GPA (for MIT when i say that), decent EC’s, and a low MIT SAT score do not help. Also being Asian is like taking something off the current GPA and lowering your SAT by 200 points and then applying as Caucasian. You will need to write a kicka$$ essay for any chance of getting in. Penn is a close one but I’ll give you high match/ low-mid reach.</p>
