Question about Penn Summer (for High Schoolers)

<p>i'm new here so i'm not 100% sure where to put this but if this is the wrong place please tell me without flaming...</p>

<p>anyway if i were to do the penn summer program and do very well do you think that would prove to penn that i can handle their courses and that would help my app? also do you think that if i took the microeconomics course offered and did well i could ask the professor for a recommendation? (hopefully some of you might have done this, known people who've done this, and/or just know in general how helpful the faculty is). and would that help with a wharton app?</p>

<p>thanks a lot.</p>
