<p>First off, this is not me, I think I’ve posted my stats on this site and they are not the same (despite similar/virtually the same numbers)</p>
<p>GPA: 3.7 (The classes pertaining to her major, however, are her highest marks; it’s the science and history classes that kill her)
SAT 2340
SAT II: 800 Math II, 800 Literature, 750 Physics
AP Scores: 5 Language, 5 Macro
Public, competitive school that sends 10+ kids to Ivies per year</p>
<p>ECs
Math Club (awards here)
Literary Club
Volunteering work for Muscular Dystrophy</p>
<p>Honestly, I think that’s it…</p>
<p>Recs: They probably emphasize her performance in class, not social interaction. (English, Macro)</p>
<p>Essays: Better than mine, probably @_@</p>
<p>Interview: She’s not a good speaker at all, so I doubt that she survived without saying “like” 32429403280832 times</p>
<p>Major: Finance.
She’s applying to the Jerome Fisher program as well.</p>
<p>What do you think?</p>
<p>Definitely weak ECs. Jerome Fisher has kids who have won Siemens, Intel, iPho, etc. They’ve done research at NIH, and other top companies. Essentially, not only does your academic profile have to be outstanding, but your extra-curricular one does too. Scores are solid, though.</p>
<p>Can she? Yes.</p>
<p>Will she? No one knows.</p>
<p>Why are you even posting her stats and tearing her down? Not only is that a complete invasion of privacy, but it reflects very poorly on your character…</p>
<p>How is that an invasion of privacy? How do you know she didnt ask for her friend to post stats? How was OP tearing her down? The only negative thing the OP said was her communication skills wasnt the best. Atleast the OP was being honest.
Anyway as stated above she could improve greatly on EC. SAT are nice and GPA is eh ish for Penn. I would hope her rec are amazing. She got somewhat of a chance but not a def high one.

<p>I was tearing her down?</p>
<p>My apologies, I misconstrued your post as “my friend” wasn’t included in it.</p>
<p>Anyway, she has solid stats, but they don’t play as pivotal of a role in the admissions process as other schools. If her 500 word supplement were very well-written and clearly outlined her passion for Penn, then I’d say she has a great chance of getting in. If not, she has a very low chance of getting in on the account of her ECs.</p>
<p>good stats, i think sufficient for upenn. would be more insightful if more in-depth ecs were listed out. I know that a friend of mine got accepted at brown after doing an essay on biking to school, and putting ‘biking’ as his number 1 ec. All i know is if the passion comes through, whether it is winning an international math competition or biking, apps will be successful. good luck to her!</p>
