<p>hmm</p>

<p>i'd say chances = good, but what about those essays/ reccs?</p>

3

<p>very good. But may i ask.. Why are you interested in penn?</p>

4

<p>I'm assuming my recs will be good... And I happen to think my essays are pretty good. The personal one is about how the American Museum of Natural History sparked my interest in foreign cultures and propelled me to take an anthropology course at Brown. <em>cringe</em> Idk.</p>

5

<p>The kids at Penn are intellectual but still very social... I need that.
Philadelphia is beautiful and the resources are amazing.
Top-notch departments in the humanities, social sciences, etc
Interdisciplinary approach would allow me to take liberal arts courses at the College while also satisfying my mathematical side by letting me take engineering courses.</p>

6

<p>you seem pretty well-rounded. i'd say yes to you, if you had strong essays.</p>

7

<p>Good shot.</p>

8

<p>I think that you will be admitted.</p>

9

<p>I would say with good personal statements and good recs, you will have a pretty good shot at it.</p>

<p>Good luck!</p>

<p>If you have an alumni connection, I'd say in almost for sure. If not, still a great chance.</p>
