<p>Does having two people from the same school (strong applicants) apply ED hurt either of thems chances?</p>
<p>Also, what major is recommended for premed?</p>
<p>What are the best majors at upenn??</p>
<p>How hard is the engineering program at upenn? (coming from someone who has taken multi, linear algebra in high school) I'm looking to maintain a 4.0 if possible (IF POSSIBLE)</p>
<p>Also how is the computer science program at UPenn?</p>
<p>AND is a 34 ACT standard, good, or bad, for an asian male</p>
<p>Don’t worry about the ED. There’s no point in analyzing what might or might not happen. A 34 seems fine.</p>
<p>They could easily accept both you and your classmate, one of you, or neither of you. When I applied ED, there was another girl I knew who did (as well as some others) and we were both accepted.</p>
<p>Your initial academic experience will largely depend on your high school preparation. Some people who went to more competitive high schools adjust well and some people who didn’t ever have to study have a very tough time. It isn’t always like that, but you should come in with aide at attitude and see how things go.</p>
<p>There is no recommended major for premed. Most major in bio or bbb it seems, but I have known a few in physics, biophysics, or biochem. The biophysics majors I know have gone to med schools and MD/PhD programs at places like Harvard, Penn, and Hopkins. It’s probably one of the toughest majors at Penn.</p>
<p>CS at Penn is very entrepreneureal. Lots of graduates go work for start ups, places like mongodb, or go into consulting or finance.</p>
<p>You shouldn’t go into college trying to maintain a 4.0. First off, you probably won’t (even if you do have a very high GPA), and second, having that mindset interferes with learning and taking academic risks. I don’t know what you think you want to do after college, but people would rather have someone who took harder classes and had a more diverse experience with a ~3.7, than someone who got a 4.0 without taking any risks.</p>
<p>It seems like you really don’t know much about what you want to study. You should try to go in with an open mind rather than trying to pick a major because it’s considered the “best” at Penn or is really hyped.</p>
<p>Best major is Finance at Wharton hands down.</p>
