Good shot at them all, particularly Michigan
I disagree with the above poster. Michigan OOS is very competitive you’re certainly a competitive applicant, but your chance at schools this selective cannot be described as good especially for Penn. you’re definitely competitive getting your ACT up a few points would help. Best of luck!
