<p>Do I have any chance for the Jerome Fisher M&T program? And should I put Wharton or SEAS for my second choice?</p>

<p>i think you need a physics satII for M&T. And if not, I don't see anything in your resume that would get you into M&T or SEAS for that matter. I think you'd be best off applying straight up wharton. or if you're set on M&T, backup with Wharton</p>

3

<p>I wasn't aware that you needed SAT II Physics for M&T. Can anyone clarify? Also what are my chances at Wharton looking like?</p>

4

<p>look nice :) good luck, make sure your essays hit it out of the park and your IN.</p>

5

<p>you are not required to take physics, but if you do well im sure itll help</p>

6

<p>Your stats are about what mine were (I ED'd and was accepted to M & T), but I did have an 800 on Physics SAT II and 5s on Physics B and Physics C: Mechanics.</p>

7

<p>I didn't take physics SATII and still got in m&t ED...</p>

<p>I think good chances if your essays are good enough.</p>

8

<p>I'm not 100% familiar with the M&T, but I'd say you have good a good chance from what I see here. With your semi-business focuses, I'd say Wharton would be a good #2.</p>
