Ok so you have a good solid gpa for Wharton but your AP scores are not top tier so do not send them. I do not think they were required. (My d just accepted to Wharton starting this fall). My husband also a grad so that may have helped.

She had very similar extra circulars as you but here is the dif:
You’ve got to rock the SAT ASAP. So had 780 m 770 (1550) then 1510 with writing 20. Also she did have all 5 maybe a 4 on 6 AP exams but we didn’t have to send them.

Penn is very pricey so it’s good you can afford it and I think the ED helps move you from about a 3% chance with your stats to 10% IF you can get better scores on sat or ACT.

Just to let you know… the other schools are still tough for you so make sure you are getting VERY strong letters of rec from Guidence and teachers. That is KEY!!

Florida - she got Pres 20k Scholarship which was hard to pass up so if you get betterschoresvyou May could get that.

Where you go is not who you’ll be. You may be better off at a less competitive school based on your desire to attend grad school. At Wharton you’d have to really bust buns to get good grades (as all attending do also).

This is my 3rd child accepted to colleges so I’m pretty experienced…
Good job with your very strong high school record. (Ps. I know a boy with 1510 nat merit scholar , nat AP scholar ranked 1 in class of 553
