<p>I am currently a junior at a highly regarded american school in the middle east, and I am looking to major in mathematics. I will be applying to the College of Arts and Science at UPenn, which happens to be my dream school.</p>
<p>Here are my stats/qualities:</p>
<p>GPA:3.822 after 10th grade, bound to go up because of 2 APs this year and 3/4 the next year
Class Rank: 10 of 116
Very rigorous course load</p>
<p>SAT1: taking it in January, expecting a 1900 first time, will aim for a 2150 the second time after doing some intensive preparation
SAT2's: taking math2 at the end of this year, aiming for a 750+, will take biology in October of senior year(next year), aiming for a 700+</p>
<p>APs
This year: Stats and Econ this year (expecting a 5 on stats and maybe a 4 and a 5 on macro and micro)
Next Year: English (4), Cal A/B (5), Physics B (4/5), Biology (4)</p>
<p>Next years AP scores won't really matter since I will be applying ED.</p>
<p>OH and I also have a question.. Does UPenn require an official AP score report when we apply? Or can we just send our scores to them after their decision (for placement)</p>
