There is this preconceived notion that wharton is hard to get into and the other Penn schools arn’t. Wharton is as hard as HYP, the rest are maybe 0.005% lower. Also, taking a business degree at the undergraduate level is UTTERLY pointless (MBA trumps guys with these degrees in the job market). Go for wharton only if yo have a family business.

As far as you chance at Penn goes. I’m a bit skeptical about that rank of yours. Yes you are top 10% but 60th is a bit too low for Penn.
Also your ECs don’t make up for your SAT score. So I guess you are treading on thin ice.
But do apply. Its worth a shot.
