Could you be more specific?
How active have you been in your extracurriculars? Just participation wouldn't be that impressive.
Your scores are ... not as high as those of most people who get into Penn.
Your race or region matters too, so if you could provide that...

yeah, and also provide more for ECs unless that is all you have. It's very hard to chance you with just that... Also can you provide an estimate of your rank? GPA and rank are kind of important. And your essay topic perhaps?

Agree with emyo that your scores aren't that impressive.

And the courseload is... not that good for UPenn either.

as far as ec's i've been highly dedicated to the golf team, played in summer tournaments ect...i played other sports (varsity track, swimmin and crew) but had a severe knee injury in my sophmore year so could not continue either of them (the knee and subsequent surgeries are the topic of my main common app essay)
i've held two jobs, one i started last summer and one i've worked in since i was 13
im one of the main tour guides for my school
gpa i can't estimate because i transffered in during sophmore year and the grades dont convert but i'm easily in the top half of my grade and probably the top quarter (the school is one of the top private schools in the northeast)
im planning to maor in anthropology if that information helps


ps- big mess up i put the wrong school name in the origional post.. sorry if that bothers anyone...

^^ its questionable: nothing really standing out at me, besides ur low SAT scores - which isn't a good thing

i'd say u have a shot if you're URM... if not - then no
