<p>Your credentials show you have worked very hard throughout your high school years. I would have liked to see the Math2 score on the SAT a little higher, but I don’t think you have time since you are applying ED. However, if you could raise it then it might help a bit. Otherwise, i think you have a strong shot at getting in. Best of luck</p>

<p>Very competitive candidate. I wouldn’t worry about your SAT II Math score, however.</p>

4

<p>Thanks for the responses!</p>

<p>Anyone else have any comments? I am still debating whether or not I should take the Math II again (I signed up for the December tests).</p>

5

<p>Yea I don’t think that your Math II is too bad because you are not applying to Wharton. But your activities and rank are up to par with Penn</p>

6

<p>Any more opinions?</p>

7

<p>good chance for ed, but you could get deferred so def take the math II again, you will probably do better</p>

<p>Ya I have decided that I am going to take Math II again in December just in case I get deferred. Anymore opinions? I have had my heart set on Penn for sooo long so any advice would be appreciated.</p>
