Discus: Ivy League Schools: University of Pennsylvania: RD Discrimination?

Hey, I will be most likely applying to The College at UPenn RD this year (EA to Yale), but I'm a little worried that UPenn reject me on the grounds of a lack of desire to matriculate (which is very not true) or on a lack of commitment because I'm applying RD, not ED. If stats will help, briefly:

790M / 770V
790 Math IIc, 760 Bio-M, 740 Writing
3.9uw / 4.04w
AP's: Eng Lang, Eng Lit, US History, Psych, CalcBC, Stat, Macro, US Gov't, Micro independant study
Scores: Eng Lang - 4, US History - 5, Psychology - 5

EC's:
editor in chief of school paper
write for local paper
published article in national mag (circ: 300,000)
nat'l award for humor writing
regional award for journalism
math team captain
mock trial
student government
varsity ski team captain
varsity baseball team

Pretty good rec's; so-so essays

So, for me, or for anyone, what do you guys think? Does UPenn care enough about ED vs. RD to reject me or someone similiar?

I think youre just stressing out too much. It's not like Penn takes 100% of its acceptees from ED.
