Hello!
I am a rising senior and one of my dream schools is Penn or the University of Pennsylvania.
I know I am not a strong candidate but I always wanted to give it a shot.
I am aware that Penn requires the entire testing history, however I did not know that meant subject tests too. In a nutshell, my ACT scores are superior to my SAT and SAT II scores.
I have taken the ACT 3 times. I scored a 25, a 27 and then a 30. I will be taking it again in the fall and will focus primarily on math because that is my weakness. My writing scores were 9,10, and 11 respectively.
I have taken the SAT two times. I scored a 1780 (610 CR, 590 M, 610 W) and then a 1700 (590 CR, 550 M, 560 W)
I have taken 3 SAT II’s- Biology E (590) and Math 2 twice (490 sophomore year and 550 this year). I made the dumb mistake by not studying for any of my SAT II’s.
So now with my scores, is it worth even applying to Penn? It would be expensive just for testing history alone but it would be doable if I had a chance
Thank you for your time!
