university of pennsylvania? *I posted this the other day and only got 3 responses so I figured I would post again and get it moved to the front of the university question section
I have a high school GPA of 4.2 weighted, 3.98 unweighted
My class rank is 14 out of 345
ACT composite=31
SAT composite=2130
SAT Math1=690
SAT Literature=700
SAT US History=700
I was commended as a national merit scholar for the PSAT and am a National Hispanic Scholar.
I have taken 5 AP classes out of the 7 offered at my school and got 4s and 5s
I volunteered 135 hours for a local Congressman and was then hired by him as a field representative.
My officer positions include: Olympus club class representative 10th grade, Olympus club treasurer 11th grade, FBLA vice president 11th grade, DECA vice president 11th grade.
The activities i was involved with include: AcDec, quiz bowl, FBLA, DECA, NHS, History Day, Model UN, Olympus, Stock Market Game, National Finance Challenge (3rd in state for 2 years), and National Economics Challenge (3rd in state for 2 years, 1st in state 1 year which put me at 35th in the nation).
Misc: I've visited Penn 3 times, am from a state that sends under 10 kids a year to Penn, and took math courses over the summer so I could take AP AB calc before graduation specifically because wharton wants kids to have calc.
Can you please tell me what you think my odds at getting in are on a scale of 1-10 and offer any advice you might have for areas of improvement?
