<p>First of all, congrats on such a strong application. I think your grades are definitely in the right range for Wharton. However, since it is the most selective business school ever, it’s a reach for everybody, but I really think you have a good chance. You obviously show interest for business with your internships and economic focuses, which is a huge plus.
make sure your essay is kickass and highlights how PASSIONATE you are, that’s the big thing now, passion. Make sure that is evident and show interest in the school, and I think you’re in. </p>

<p>please chance me back?? means a lot.</p>
