<p>Are you projecting those SATs, or have you taken them and received those scores?</p>

<p>I took SAT I, Math II, Chem,
I am projecting USA Histroy, It should be better than I projected</p>

<p>If you're doing business, why would you rather go to Dartmouth than Wharton?</p>

<p>because penn simply isn't very prestigious</p>

<p>I'd love to hear from the OP, who doesn't have a vendetta against me.</p>

<p>Excellent point by EATYOURCEREAL... Dartmouth is defnitely much more prestigious then Penn.</p>

<p>btw OP dont take anything muerteapablo says seriously. Shes a retard...</p>

<p>is EATYOURCEREAL being sarcastic?
going to a college should have nothing to do with the level of prestige because all ivy leagues and so many other institutions are top-tier in the country; it has to do with how well you FIT into a certain environment.
i'm also very curious: why not wharton and why dartmouth?</p>

<p>Don't use that word. It's ugly and immature.</p>

<p>Unless you actually WANT to come across as a 9-yr-old bully on a playground.</p>

<p>Actually, I'm pretty sure that Wharton is a lot more prestigious than Dartmouth, but maybe that's just me.</p>

<p>i would try to include your reasoning for business/economics in one of your essays or short answers to give adcoms a better understanding/fuller sense of who you are. best of luck next year!</p>

<p>you have a good range of schools..but for your top schools that you ranked 1 and 2, I think you stand the same chance as anyone who is applying to those schools just because of their competition. I think you will be admitted to the schools you ranked 3 and 4 on your list.</p>

<p>Thanks
I have the same thought, if luck, if can go to Chicago, thenwill be happy enough, that is my bottom line. tough life
perhaps, my debating experiencecan help me a bit for B-school, agree????????????</p>
