<p>Wharton ED chances? I applied to Huntsman for the heck of it. Will be happy enough with Wharton. Thanks all.</p>

<p>I think you have absolutely no chance</p>

3

<p>Oct SAT retake got 2290 (760 CR/780 M/750 W), forgot to change that.</p>

4

<p>you have the best chance you could have when applying IMO </p>

<p>I don't think being asian will help, but then again who knows. It sucks, yes. What are you going to do though...</p>

5

<p>ur in good shape</p>

6

<p>a) I'm surprised they let "hell" through the filters. =P</p>

<p>b) You have a very good chance. Having your own business will definitely help. My prediction is that you'll be rejected from Huntsman (not much of an international aspect to you...) but accepted to Wharton. Good luck!</p>
