<p>Looking at myself as an applicant, I think I have a much better chance of getting into SEAS than Wharton. That’s why I chose SEAS instead of Wharton as backup. My SAT II’s are perfect scores in Physics, Chem, and Math. My AP’s are calculus, physics, chem, computer science, and French. On paper, I would appear more like a SEAS applicant. I don’t mind just staying in SEAS because I have an interest in engineering. And as chrisw said, you don’t need a wharton degree to work on wall street. I figured I had better odds with SEAS than wharton, I didn’t want to get wholly rejected from Penn because I don’t have many other options. The upside is that I still can take Wharton courses and possibly graduate with a wharton degree.</p>
