<p>I created this thread to see how many poeple got in to Penn that did not have great stats. Please dont post if you have like a 4.0 and 2300 sats…I want this thread to be interesting.</p>
<p>I got accepted to Penn:</p>
<p>GPA: 3.97
SAT: 2300</p>
<p>I didn't have a 4.0 and I got in!</p>
<p>But I'm not sure what you are looking for...many people with hooks have a lower GPA and SAT and still get in. Just asking for GPA and SAT won't show the whole picture.</p>
<p>Gpa: 89%
Sat: 2270</p>
<p>is there anyone out their that got in with like a 3.0 and 1700? now that would be interesting</p>
<p>i got in with a 4.4 on a 5.0 scale, (3.7 on a 4.0) scale and only 1950 SAT scores...but my dad is an admissions counselor there, even tho that proly had nothing to do with it</p>
<p>wow thats cool..you know the admissions process..care to explain :)</p>
<p>iversonali23, you really think your dad's being in admissions had absolutely nothing to do with it?</p>
<p>Here's the best insight you'll find into the admission process: chaos</p>
<p>sat 1930
gpa like around 3.5 unweighted probably
got into SEAS ED for the class of 2010</p>
<p>I was accepted in '94 with a 3.2 (including a D in Chem, F in Trig) and 1310 (680V, 630Q.) Very, very limited extracurrics.
In-state though, and my HS was apparently one of the best publics around. Rumor was that Penn set a high quota for it but I have no idea whether that's true.</p>
<p>Seems like the times have changed since then, I'm not sure it would fly these days.</p>
<p>3.8 Uw, 4.5 W, 2030 Sat</p>
