<p>If you’re looking for some formula of relative weights, then it’s a supreme fools’ errand. Excellent academic achievement and potential is the first criteria. That’s measured through transcript foremost and to a lesser degree, scores – <a href=“there%20is%20no%20formal%20weighting%20of%20either!”>I</a>*</p>
<p>Then it comes to what the applicant can bring to Penn. This is the holistic side of things. No quantifying that at all.</p>
<p>This is spelled out on the Penn website.</p>
