I go to Penn right now and telling by your status you have absolutley no chance at getting in. Maybe try a state school or something. Good luck!

i think you need at least a 31 or 32 to be competitive.

top 5% is good, but not when you're competing against so many valedictorians.

and while your activities are also admirable, there are many other students with higher GPA's and board scores with similar activities.

the college may be one of the less selective schools out of the ivies, but that doesn't mean it's easy to get in.
