Thanks in advance, and I apologize for the double post!**</p>

<p>Hi,</p>

<p>First off, congratulations on your achievements. </p>

<p>1) Northeastern and Rutgers, you are clearly in!
2) I would say Wharton is not a long shot for you, considering your achievements. Your test scores are decent (impressive) but your credentials are amazing. </p>

<p>You are very lucky!</p>

<p>Thanks! Any comments on the other schools?</p>
