<p>heres my story [if you want to read all of it]</p>

<p>well, I'm currently a high school senior. When I graduate, my gpa shall probably be a 3.5/3.6</p>

<p>Im going to a cc after high school because of a couple of reasons
-did not participate in alot of extra cirruculars
-did horrible on SAT's; got a 1479 [did HORRIBLE in math]
-the colleges I want to go SATs average score are high; and I did not qualify</p>

<p>Because of these factors, I dont think I would get alot of scholarship $$, so I figured I would go to a cc and then apply to a 4 year. And I would save alot of money, and also take any neccessary remedial classes. [I think I need it]</p>

<p>But I did well in all my business classes throughout high school. I love business, and wants to go to one of the best business school in the country [which is wharton]. I know their acceptance rate for cc is probably extremely low.. what do you advise I do while in cc to increase my chances of getting accepted there?</p>

<p>Wharton and all good business schools require strong math skills, so focus on building those. For top business programs they look at SAT scores, even for transfers, so really practicing for the SAT will also be key.</p>

<p>To be quite honest, I would look into transferring elsewhere. Wharton is not a realistic goal.</p>

<p>or ANY good business school?</p>

<p>There is no shortage of good business schools. I suspect the only reason you chose Wharton is because of the name/ranking.</p>

<p>yeah you can get into some good business schools, but Wharton is the best of the best, be careful what you wish for</p>
