<p>Hey guys, I am a junior in an extremely competitive private school. Its a Jewish school so I take Hebrew/ Jewish classes as well as secular courses. My school is farley new (5 years), but many kids have been accepted to the Ivy Leagues, as well as, other top colleges. My school doesnt rank. I love business and have loved it for many years. I want to go into trading, and then I hope to be able to manage my own hedge fund. Please read my stats and tell me if I stand a chance for Wharton or if I can do anything to increase those chances. Any help will be greatly appreciated!
