<p>Please can someone (especially a Penn student) review my apps? I’m deciding whether or not to apply ED and I would like some advice. Your response would be greatly appreciated :-)</p>

<p>Update new stuff and more info: </p>

<p>Trend of grades: High freshman, High sophomore first term, lower soph 2nd term, lowest junior 1st term (issues), higher junior 2nd term (big improvement in previously bad subjects, teachers writing recs) </p>

<p>shape looks like a u, parabolic, lol </p>

<p>SAT breakdown if it matters: 750 Reading 750 Math 660 Writing = 2160 (2nd time) </p>

<p>Full senior year courseload 4 APs as mentioned above, Forensics science, Symphonic band, english elective (non ap), Government (social science elective) </p>

<p>Note, I’m applying as an international student because I’m technically a temporary resident so that will definitely have an impact on my app. They’re more selective than ever. Even though I’ve been living here for 10+ years.</p>
