<p>The internships are interesting, but your ACT is rather low. I would say you definitely have a chance, but with Wharton, no one honestly knows. Best of luck!</p>

3

<p>Nice hook with the internship. </p>

<p>But I agree with the above, the scores are so low on both AP and ACT.</p>

4

<p>As good a chance as any.</p>

5

<p>Anyone else???</p>

6

<p>Your scores are pretty low, but you’re valedictorian…
So perhaps they’ll take the context of your school into account.</p>

7

<p>hey im from bangladesh! thats such a cool internship.</p>

<p>I think your chances are pretty good considering you applied ED. Of course, no one knows with Wharton. Your listed AP scores are pretty low but i think your internships will help offset them
Good luck!</p>
