<p>I know upenn is where I want to go , but i know im not the perfect candidate because of my scores and i don't have picture perfect grades.However I did get an interview..and it went great !! I need some serious advice because im not going down without a fight. #2014 #2018 also im african american</p>
<p>The interview isn’t as important as you might think, but if it went really well (you made an awesome connection with the interviewer, spoke for a long time), it will help. UPenn treats the transcript/academic rigor most importantly, and test scores sometimes take a back seat to coursework. Essays can easily get you in, even without what you might think you need in scores or grades. Hopefully everything went well, but remember it may as well be a coin flip, so make sure you have your backups lined up! Good luck!</p>
