Hi, I’m currently a sophomore in high school and what chances do I have in attending UPENN?
Specifically, at this state will I be able to attend Upenn for its engineering school?

My current GPA is a 3.99 with high A’s (95+)- got the 3.99 because of a 89 my freshman year
I am taking 3 AP courses at the moment and haven’t taken the test yet; I’m planning to take 12 total throughout my high school career.
I am taking high and advanced classes, as well as the highest engineering classes.
I haven’t taken the psat or the sat yet but I am taking the psat soon (2 months).
My writing isn’t too great, but I will be able to improve it
My math and science skills are great
SS is above average (ish)
I’m currently taking spanish 1 and 2 (planning to take 4 courses of it)

Extracurricular + Achievements
I was in band for 4 years and was in the honors band class
I am a black belt in Tae Kwon Do
(not sure how much volunteer hours i have at the moment)
I am in Robotics Club (2 years) - no leadership positions as of yet
Mu Alpha Theta (math team)
Ran Track and Field

Legacy:
I have two older siblings and they attend UPENN as of right now. They got in through a full ride in other words, they were extremely dedicated to their academics in high school.

I am not like them, but I am wondering if I have a chance of attending UPENN at this rate. Of course there will be more to this, this is just my current state as a sophomore.
