<p>bump please??</p>

<p>you arent first generation if your parents are not graduates from USA. so that wont help you.</p>

<p>very good ECs. But nothing that stands out. You should take up some initiative and start something. nice leadership positions. BUT it is UPenn. So it will be VERY difficult, even if ED. You better have exceptional essays that make you stand out.</p>

<p>I would say a mid reach if ED.</p>

<p>could you chance me? : <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/960287-chance-international-national.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/960287-chance-international-national.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>Thanks! :)</p>

<p>GPA= good
ACT= very good
Sat 2= ok nothing special
AP Scores= good and if your Calc AB subscore was 5, even better
ECs= very good
Awards= good enough</p>

<p>Like nitcomp you have everything that’s needed plus some, now its just up to you to make sure you emphasize what your good at. With ED is say that you have a good chance of getting in.</p>

<p>I would say your chances are very good. Grades and ACT are excellent. ECs are strong. SAT IIs and APs are ok - won’t be a plus but shouldn’t hurt you either. </p>

<p>30% to Ivys - that’s really high.</p>

<p>Thanks guys! I don’t know if my schedule looks rigorous, but I’ve taken the most demanding load possible to me - my school often doesn’t level classes because it’s college-prep.</p>

<p>I’m also going to try to get a couple really solid scores in French & MathII in October, because those are two subjects I’m pretty good at. Do you guys have any other advice? Thank you so much!</p>
