Chances?

I want to get into Wharton but I stress out everyday over whether my application will get me in or not. I am a junior now but this is a proposed position of where I will be by the time I am applying.</p>

<p>Reflection
Strengths: I am Hispanic and I’m apart of ALAS which I presume to be a club apparent at UPenn. I did an Internship and I showed further interest in my major with college classes and Business related clubs at my school.
Weaknesses: Average SAT score, possibly not enough AP’s, no extracurriculars freshman or sophomore year, no outstanding awards so far (only a junior). </p>

<p>General Comments:
Information, such as letter of recs, were included because that is how I expect them to be by the time of my application. I really want to get into Wharton and I’m trying to find out everything that I possibly can to make my application better, if you have any advice for me PLEASE share.</p>

<p>You have a very strong chance. Make your proposed a reality and apply ED.</p>
