<p>Hey, i'm a JUNIOR right now and i'm starting to get a grip of reality that it's actually going to take a lot more to get into UPENN. Add to the fact that i don't think i can get into their summer program, b/c i haven't taken the SATS yet -_-, it makes me sad. Anyways, what are my chances... (this is what i presume will be on my app in senior year and i'll try to be realistic)</p>

<p>as you can see, i've become a lot more motivated this year to get 5.0 gpa compared to my previous years. (hope penn will like that). It's just that i think i'm still too late to catch up. What do you guys think of my stats? If it's suitable for Penn, i will work hard and do what it takes to raise my chances. Penn is my TOP choice. i will apply ED if it helps. </p>
<p>thanks</p>
