Please Chance me for UPenn CAS ED -- and other schools

<p>Hi!</p>

<p>I’m thinking about applying to UPenn CAS ED this year, so here are my stats. Please chance me! THANK YOU</p>

<p>Some of you may recognize me from another chance thread I made for Wharton. Wharton is my dream school, but it is so hard to get into haha I’m keeping my options open, and I may apply to CAS economics…These chance threads play a part in helping me decide, so they are pretty important to me hehe</p>

<p>I have a weird situation where I repeated 10th grade (not because I couldn’t keep up lol I was always younger than everyone in my class. Complicated~ I repeated 10th grade when I transferred schools, so I have 2 10th grade records)</p>

<p>Scores:
PSAT: 209 sophomore year, 213 Junior
SAT: M-770, CR-730, W-800. Total-2300
SAT II: MathIIC - 800, USH - 700 (might not use this if possible), Planning on taking Chem and/or physics, and Chinese
AP: USH - 3 (bleh…i hate history), Micro-5, Macro-5, Chinese-5. Don’t know about Stats and Lang yet. Planning on taking Chem, Calc BC, and Physics next year.</p>

<p>GPA unweighted:
At my first and smaller school (G9, 10) - 3.9. We actually used the IB/MYP scale, but my transcript gave a GPA as well.
My new and MUCH more competitive and larger school (G10, 11) - 3.79
So when I average up all my GPA, I get 3.82, but don’t know what the colleges will do with this.</p>
