Research?

<p>Hey all,</p>

<pre><code> I’m applying ED to upenn SEAS. I did research under the physics dept. for two summers in a row (which is helping tremendously with the “which professor would u like to do research with” essay). I was wondering, if my GPA and SAT’s are kinda average (top 6ish% of class of 58, 2150, perfect math and chem sat II) But my e.cs are really good, will this research thing be like a hook? In other words, how much will doing research help me?

<p>it’ll help. i hope so at least. i worked with the department of medicine.</p>

<p>get a rec from that professor you worked with. </p>

<p>with your ranking and sat scores, i think you have a really good shot. good luck.</p>

<p>lol… thats a class of 580 by the way…</p>
