Your stats are awesome! Everything looks perfect...hopefully you'll get the verbal score up though. You'll probably get in especially because you are related to alumni. Early Decision will help a lot to. Of course Penn is Ivy League and most to all applications will be strong like yours so it will be competative. Good Luck! Please respond to What are my chances at Tufts? Thanks

I thought about applying to Duke early, but my two top choices, Duke and Penn, were both very close in my mind--and I thought that my best chance to get into to either of these schools would be to use my legacy standing at Penn--do you think it would help enough to make the difference--would I have had a chance at Duke?
