<p>Am I competive for M&T or should I just stick with SEAS. I know crazy M&T is...only like 50 people. I really want to get into Penn and I would be more than happy not doing M&T if it is a big reach...so I don't know what to do.</p>

SAT II: Math II:800, History: 800, will take bio in dec

<p>What are my chances for both SEAS and M&T. Right now I am thinking to just doing SEAS, but I really don't know.</p>

<p>When you apply to M&T, you can indicate a single-degree choice as your backup and if you qualify for the single-degree but not M&T, they'll take you. So I'd say give M&T a shot and indicate SEAS as ur back-up. With great essays and recs, I think you're a very competitive applicant.</p>

<p>From what I've seen browsing the threads over the past year, M&T admissions seem pretty random. Give it a shot anyway, as I am this year (ED though) =p.</p>

<p>Wow 1550 SAT? That's like a 500 on each section...</p>

<p>but they do weigh the GPA more than the SAT so they may look past that.</p>

<p>I think you have a good chance</p>
