<p>Reflection
Strengths: Almost everything honestly
Weaknesses: Freshman year grades</p>

<p>Your UW is a little low, but it’s good that you’re showing steady improvement. Your Weighted is very good at 4.7, and your SAT IIs look fine as well (though there’s only two). Especially since your ECs look fantastic I think you’d be in the ball park (ED also has higher admission rates usually). Chance back!</p>

<p>I’d agree with everything, although I feel like two subject tests is fine number, especially considering I never took the SAT, so they were kinda just supplemental to my app. UW is also my real concern. If I got rejected, I would assume it’s because of that. </p>

<p>Hey man I believe that you have a very strong application and have a solid shot to Penn. I don’t think your freshman grades will cause the rejection. You are a very strong candidate and I think you are in.</p>

<p>Chance back:
