Wharton ED chance,, & concern for the leadership postion

<p>School : Lancaster Catholic Highschool(transfered in my senior year from another catholic high)</p>

<p>GPA: 4.358(weighted), rank : 11/235</p>

<p>SAT : 2200(M800/CR670/W730),, actually guessing since oct SAT was my first attempt but I'm confident it will be 2150~2250 range.</p>

<p>SAT2 :Math2=>800, Physics=>680(I couldn't mark almost 15 answers because I ran out of my time,,) I'm going to retake physics and take Chinese with Listening on November</p>

<p>AP: AP calculus AB 5, AP biology 4, AP phsics B 4, (taking 4 more in my senior year) AP psychology 3(thinking about canceling the score because I didn't take the class)</p>

<p>EC : Debate national qualifier<original oratory="">(placed in 3rd on the district, and also placed in 3rd in entire diocesan(catholic) which qualified for grand national tournament held in Texas, May). Varsity tennis 3 years. Diocesan representative piano accompanist&bass. School mass choir accompanist&bass(everyday). Played piano for 12 years;played for Talent show&Music Revue. Youth group leader in my Korean immigrant church(Teach Koreans and take care of children)&participate in worship team<accompanist>. Futures business club<penn state="" competition="" 1st="" place="">. etc..</penn></accompanist></original></p>

<p>Even though I have dedicated so much of my passion&hours on EC stuff,, the problem is I don't have any leadrship position other than Youth leader in church. I transfered school in my senior year because I couldn't find host family in my previous school any longer. Even though I like the academic challenge of school where I'm attending now, I don't know whether I can position myself as a leader. Do you think the debate national qualifier and other my EC stuff will negate the fact that I don't hold many leadership positions?? I've been really worried about this thinking it might prevent me from getting accepted to Wharton. I will interview for the business club treasury position tomorrow. And I'm trying to make a debate club in this school but I'm not sure whether I can make a team before I submit the Commonapp October 31st. Can I just write on Commonapp that I made a debate team since I'm sure I will make it before the another debate season??(March) Or is it not worth the risk?? I really want to know whehter I can get accepted to Wharton.</p>

<p>Wharton does not REQUIRE you to be club president of every school. They just want you to show them that you have leadership potential, whether that be by being president of club, spearheading projects, or even being a church group leader like you have. Just realize that there are many, many applicants that have stats that are very similar. (Asian male, decent grades, not many amazing ECs). But you have a chance, don't give up! GOod luck!</p>
