I have a question, If anyone knows here about it, on Commonapp, where it asks you about your schools, its like I had to change my school after 8th, then again in 9th and then cuz of our education, ultimately had to change for F.sc i.e so I'm going to be consistent for last two years, so do i have to mention all these in my application?

Well I have a long shot with most of the colleges in my list all thanks to my grades, though I have like a bit averagish ECs, but I do have high hopes with my SAT Score and college essays

And I'm intending to do engineering, hopefully Electrical or Computer Engineering and I surely will take a chance with Jerome fisher program at UPenn.

What about you? Plus you are going to apply to these three or some others as well?
