<p>I would say right now you have an alright chance of getting in. </p>

<p>First, I’m only saying this because you need to submit at least two SAT subject tests if you want to apply to Wharton. There is no more chances to take neither the SAT nor the SAT II subject tests before early applications are due. You’re only hope is to submit only your ACT score.</p>

<p>Second, your SAT scores are kind of low for Wharton. </p>

<p>Third, I’ve heard that your essays have a lot to do with your chances. If you submit great essays, you have a good chance of getting in. If they are mediocre, I’m not too sure. </p>

<p>Be sure you do all you can to get a leg up on the competition. Good Luck!</p>

<p>I’m pretty darn sure that October is a date where you can still take the SAT/SAT2 and apply ED.</p>

4

<p>The date for the SAT in October is the 4th. It usually takes about three weeks for the results to be posted online. So you would know your results at the end of October. The thing is, you wouldn’t be able to send you score in because it takes at least a month for collegeboard to start sending out results. So the soonest the results could be mailed is November 4th. The deadline for the application and everything in it is November 1st.</p>

<p>chances aren’t very good</p>

6

<p>BUmp ------</p>

7

<p>I say you might be waitlisted at Upenn, get into Cornell, and you’re into UVa and NYU.</p>

8

<p>I’m pretty sure you can send in SAT scores for October with no problem; UPenn website says you can even send in November (but you have to pay for the rush service). Talk to your guidance counselor to see how you can go about that (October, I mean)? </p>

<p>And you have pretty awesome AP scores for the math topics, just get those SAT scores up and write a beastin’ essay, good luck</p>

9

<p>reject wharton</p>

10

<p>Yea you can take the SAT/SAT 2’s in October and November and still apply early, just be sure to tell Penn in your application and rush scores from collegeboard (there is an extra fee).</p>

11

<p>sorry but your SATs are too low, especially if you don’t have over-the-top extracurriculars to back it up…
so probably reject or waitlisted.
try CAS, you’ll have a better shot</p>

12

<p>^ CAS is not easier to get into..</p>

13

<p>i say you have a decent shot of getting in. try to move those SAT scores up though.</p>
