<p>Hey guys.
I am applying to UPenn ED
My GPA: 4.33 (weighted) 3.94 (unweighted)
SAT: 2180.
SAT II: US History: 740, Japanese: 800, Math IIC: 800, Chem: 750</p>
<p>I have decent ECs (actualy some of them are pretty gud).
Do you think i hav a shot a Penn?
Some people are telling me that my SAT score is bad... do u think it's gonna hinder my chance of getting in? (my reading is really low... 640)</p>
<p>what’s your class rank?</p>
<p>I dont think your SATs that bad, its a little bit below average but not by much. Your SAT IIs make up for it pretty nicely. If your class rank is at least top 10%, I’d say you have as good a chance as anyone else. Good Luck.</p>
<p>Your SATII will only help you if you’re not Japanese</p>
<p>Would you mind listing some of those ECs? It’d help to see what you’ve done. Also, any hooks (URM, legacy, etc)? Right now I suppose you have as good a shot as anyone, but it’s still a reach. It is UPenn after all!</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>so his 800 in Math 2, 750 Chem, and 740 in US History don’t matter?</p>
<p>740 in us history isn’t that spectacular</p>
<p>as good a chance as anyone else. Focus on essays.</p>
<p>740 on his History is nothing vs my 660 on my SAT II lit.</p>
<p>thank you guys.
and yes. I am definitely in top 10%. In fact, i think i’m in top 4-5%.
The problem is… my school doesnt rank… so yeah. that’s a bummer.</p>
<p>Some of my significant ECs are…
President of 2 clubs (service and math), Participated in a soundwave research with a professor at UCLA for 14 hrs/8 weeks.
and some awards such as AP Scholar with Distinction, National Merit Commendation, Reigonal math competition 2nd place, and regional clarinet concerto 2nd place.</p>
<p>I took Calc III class over the summer and my courseload really shows that i am a math oriented person. So i am gonna apply as a math major.</p>
