<p>Well I don’t see any particular reason to admit you, but then again I don’t see any reason not to either! With the ED rate being higher than RD, you should have a good chance I’d think :)</p>

4

<p>thank you sooo much. :slight_smile: Any others?</p>

5

<p>Your stats are better than mine and I think I will get in. You should definitely apply ED! Make sure your essays are stellar. Best of luck!!</p>

6

<p>Yay, a fellow Penn ED! I agree with ilovebagel, but the reading score might look…not good. You should retake it this saturday and rush send/not send depending on your score. But everything else seems pretty good, and ED is up for grabs…GL!</p>

<p>we have an identical gpa! wooo for 3.94’s. </p>

<p>Wish you luck! my act score is a bit lower than your sat…but there may be hope for us!</p>

<p>I think it’s ironic when people who don’t have exceptional SAT scores are SAT prep tutors</p>
