<p>Should I risk going for Wharton ED? :/ I just don't want to waste the opportunity to go to Upenn in general. It's my dream school but Wharton is what I want more than anything.</p>

<p>Bump, can someone advise</p>

<p>Wharton ED: Reach</p>

4

<p>Also, does anyone think UPenn ED would yield better chances?</p>

5

<p>^Not necessarily because your application seems to be more geared towards Wharton</p>

6

<p>Would you chance me?</p>

7

<p>If you have an upward trend you have a shot. If not, it’s a bit of a stretch.</p>

<p>Definitely ED at Wharton though.</p>

8

<p>Bump. I will chance you back!</p>

9

<p>I think it’s posibble with your stats</p>

10

<p>Chance back</p>

<p>a senior from my magnet sch got in ED, but not WHARTON!, I think it was med.</p>

<p>if u want a general overview of his stats, he was a 3.97 UW, 2200 sat’s, and he did some research with them…</p>

<p>Btw, another val from my school gor rejected from Wharton, idk why, he had crazy stats like finishing CALC BC during soph year…</p>

<p>so I hope this gives u a heads up on their varying lvls. of comptetiveness in diff schools…</p>

<p>Hmm okay. It’s in part a decision between CAS ED and Wharton ED at this point. People have told me that my application is geared more towards Wharton but I don’t want to miss an opportunity for shooting “too high”.</p>
