Penn State University Park Chances?

Chance Me / Match Me!
1

<p>Hi All, just to warn everyone my stats arent anywhere near the people in this board, but I've tried my hardest so I'm happy.</p>

<p>What do you guys think of my chances into the business (not engineering) school? Out of state, from Northern Virginia</p>

<p>SAT: 1240 (650 Math 590 Verbal) (Low, I know. Not a good test taker) SAT II's (620 Math IC 650 Writing)</p>

<p>3.52 Unweighted GPA (94-100 is an A grading scale & from a highly competitive public high school. I'm in about top 20% rank of graduating class)</p>

<p>3.92 unweighted Senior Quarter GPA with 3 AP's </p>

<p>Really Strong Extra-Cirriculars: (National Honor Society, Business Competition Awards, Vice-President of the School, Student Government, Volunteer Work, Community Forums, etc.)</p>

<p>Teacher Rec's aren't looked upon at PSU.
My personal statement was really good I thought, haha. It could only be like 500 LETTERS though, so it was about 7 sentences long.</p>

<p>From this broad amount of information, would you consider Penn State University Park a reach? I applied a month ago, and I'm hoping to hear from them soon.</p>

<p>Thanks for your replies,</p>

<p>It looks like you have a good cance, from what I know (which is not much,lol), word on the street is that you'll find out soon (I read on this forum of someone who heard back in about 20 days).</p>

<p>yeah youll get in, maybe ill see you there!</p>

<p>Your chance is about 80.76%. It's a match, not reach. What school are you from?</p>

<p>wow, i really really doubt it if you're from out of state. PSU's ridiculously easy for pennsylvanians, but others it's tough.</p>

<p>Well...here's my stats. I just got in to Penn State-University Park, but it was more like a safety. </p>

<p>GPA: 3.43 (UW)
ACT: 32
SAT II's: PSU doesn't look at them but 780 Math 2c, 720 Writing, 710 World History
Plenty of EC's, leadership positions, and a good counselor rec.
New York State resident</p>

<p>However, PSU is all about numbers. If you've got a good GPA and pretty good test scroes, you'll be in. I think you'll get in. If you're into business, it would be good for you to have good math scores on your transcript.</p>

<p>Good luck, you definitely have a shot!</p>

<p>If you don’t get in something’s wrong.</p>
