My test scores are not that great but I have something which sets me apart. I founded my own business at age 11 and have been running it ever since. I grossed $35k in sales last year and have been part of many extracurriculars pertaining to this. In addition I do some community service and am part of some clubs. ACT 28 GPA 3.7. I am taking October ACT and will hopefully get 30. I will send senior year report card with weighted 4.2 GPA. What do you guys think my chances of getting in are?
Not very likely at the moment with your gpa and test score. You should be aiming for a 34 or above with with gpa. I don’t see how a 30 will cut it.
Your ACT should be 32+. Your class rank should be in the top 5% with that GPA (would signify a school with difficult teachers). If you founded your own business, did you run/manage or just only “found” it.
I am also a business owner, I also started my company around 10-11 years old
I am only a freshman and high school but did you get in?
Please let me know because it would give me insight on what I can improve/change or if not change anything at all
OP did not get in with ED. It is also impossible to chance for Wharton. It is hard to know what catches the AO’s eyes. I saw someone with stellar academic and business experience got rejected/deferred, Someone got in with basically no business experience.
