At the moment, I am an eighth grade student, which means that next year, the classes and extracurricular activities I do will show up on my transcript. Therefore, I need to make sure I take an acceptable curriculum for the colleges I apply to.

As I am considering a career in finance, The University of Pennsylvania (Wharton) seems like an ideal higher education institution. And, I am willing to work very hard in high school to be admitted to such a school.

What I would like to know is what it takes to be admitted to Wharton. How many and which extracurricular activities and Advanced Placement Courses should I take? What else would look good on an application to Wharton?
