<p>Lmao! Wanna chance me!? Please note, I really don’t believe in chancing at all, this is all just out of curiosity of what a peer thinks. I applied to CAS ED. I am Israeli and my grandparents are Moroccan. I live in South Florida and I have 600s SAT across the board (Penn’s lower 25% :confused: ) GPA= 3.77/4.0 founded 3 organizations (in the middle of establishing another one to raise funds to replenish the forest that burnt down in Israel). Recognized by President Obama for my community leadership (received award from the White House), I was The United States Representative at the 2010 International “Lapid” Teen Zionism (Israel) Conference (I was at a conference in Israel with many other students from countries around the world), President of my class and Captain of the Varsity Swim Team, on the board of every other club in my school, Internship with Mayor of my city and served as his mayoral campaign secretary, Internship (with some research) with a surgical oncologist, received national awards for theater (theater was my passion, it was definitely something I excelled in), Posse Foundation semi-finalist, studied abroad in Israel for college credit and a few other things here and there. I really hope to God that I am accepted. This is really my perfect match school. Oh! And a couple of weeks ago I corresponded with Dean Eric Furda!</p>

<p>As long as your over a 500 SAT you’re fine, so you’re definitely fine in that category, but hopefully they’ll love the rigorous course load. Other than the academics, you are a very generic applicant. The extracurriculars aren’t that phenomenal, but I’m just a student, and you shouldn’t listen to me.</p>
