<p>Ok, this is a completely ridiculous question but just humor me. I would like to know the basic qualifications to get into Wharton. I would like to know the basics, I want general, I know you can't give me a sure fire way to get in but try to give me a basic idea. Thanks. </p>

<p>I would like to know:</p>

<p>Weighted GPA (I live in Fairfax county, which is a pretty good school district, generally competitive):</p>

<p>Extra Curics:</p>

<p>Recommended Classes:</p>

<p>Is GPA 100% vital? If gpa is say around like a 4.2 weighted, but my extra curics are strong with leadership in financial areas like DECA (went to nationals) and FBLA? Sorry to be asking such broad questions but it's a school I'm really interested in and hoping to get my info semi-early.</p>

<p>Thanks for the help.</p>

<p>do everything you’d do to get into any good school. high gpa, good sat scores, focused, interesting extracurricular, solid essays.</p>

<p>Wharton doesn’t necessarily pick students with business experience. high school students can have only so much “business” experience. FBLA and DECA, etc are good. but if there are other, more interesting ECs that you are actually passionate about, do those instead.</p>
