Do I have any chance at all?

<p>I have always dreamed of going to the UPenn. Unfortunately, I do not think my stats are where they need to be. What are my chances?</p>

<p>GPA
Weighted = 4.54
Unweighted = 3.95</p>

<p>Rank
3-4/238 <em>Will be number 1 when next ranking comes out</em></p>

<p><em>There was a problem during my 10th grade year. Our BRVGS teacher blatantly stated no one in the class would be receving an A for the year, during the first week of school. This stirred up much debate, and the school board is deciding what actions need to be taken.</em></p>

<p>ACT
29 (I know this will be the weakest portion of my application; I am retaking this in October. Hopefully, my scores will be much higher)</p>

<p>I am taking the SAT IIs in November.</p>

<p>Classes
All Honors, AP, and Gifted
AP U.S. History
AP English I
AP English II
AP U.S. Government
AP Biology
AP Calculus
BRVGS (Gifted Program)</p>

<p>EC's
NHS - Secretary
BETA - Secretary
SCA - Secretary
Student Class - Secretary
FCA - Secretary
Varsity Socccer - 9,10,11,12
Varsity Golf - 11
I have close to 150 hours of community service, ranging from Trick or Treating to cans, to helping out at the local Santa's Workshop.&lt;/p>

<p>As far as recommendations and application essays, I feel both portions will be very strong. </p>

<p>My school is in a very rural section of Virginia. Although, we do send students to places such as UVa, William and Mary, Johns Hopkins, MIT, and the United States Air Force Academy. I know this is a very rough resume, and my stats may not be all that great, but I am very optimistic. Thank you.</p>

<p>Bummpppppppppppppp</p>

<p>chill man...you have a good chance</p>

<p>You have a good chance, but your chances will increase by a large amount if you get that ACT up at least 2-3 points.</p>
