<p>Any school at Penn is a maybe.</p>

<p>Not that your stats are bad - they are good. It’s just because Penn accepts such a small percentage, and with everyone applying with good stats, admission is almost based on luck.</p>

<p>My advice is still to apply.</p>

<p>Is it possible? You’re the one in probability ;)</p>
