being from philly will end up really helping you. try to get 600s on your sats and apply ed. play up your community involvement or something in your essays and i bet you will at least get deferred if not accepted. penn really loves taking people from philly (not the suburbs/main line) who went to public schools because it makes them feel like they are helping the city. there are a lot of masterman people here so that means they are familiar with your school. just work on those scores and you have a great chance.
