<p>Right now, I'm an eighth grader at Seven Bridges Middle School. If you're going to tell me that I'm "too young" to be thinking about this and whatnot, please just leave now. At my middle school, I'm taking two courses (the most possible) that count for high school: Enriched Algebra 1 and Spanish 1. The first quarter is over, and I got an A+ (4.0) in both of them. Both of my parents went to Wharton, and my grandfather went to dental school at Penn. I provided a course catalog for my high school (although it's for 2012-2013). Any advice would be helpful. Thanks in advance!

<p>best way to get into wharton - stop trying so hard. do what your driven/motivated/want to do. keep up good grades and SAT score.</p>
<p>You’re too young.
lol
Good luck kid. You have good chances with your legacies.</p>
<p>Ok, just being honest now, I’m only in sixth grade XD. Can’t a girl go through a phase without too much criticism?! I don’t know why I said dental school, it was engineering anyways.</p>
<p>Two words: Oy. Vey. Stop stressing! I can guarantee that you’ll change your mind about which colleges you want to apply to at least once over the next four to five years; but if not, good for you. All I can say is power through middle school, and enjoy life as a kid, before launching yourself face-first into the college search. I mean, it’s good to be ahead of the game, but sheesh! Do me a favor: go out and enjoy being a middle schooler while it lasts :)</p>
<p>But anyway. Now for the real advice :D</p>
<p>Establish good relationships with your teachers. Pursue activities you love, not just stuff you think will beef up your resume. If you love dolphins, go create a Protect the Dolphins Initiative (…that was a random thing to jump to, but who doesn’t like dolphins?). Prepare yourself for those standardized tests and just remember: be yourself. Plenty of people can get 4.0s and super high test scores, but no one can be YOU. :)</p>
