How and WILL I get into a top univerisity?
1. I completed my Junior year in High School. Next Fall I apply.
2. My GPA is around 3.85.
3. I have taken a pretty tough course schedule.
Last year I had 3 classes in High School, 2 AP and 1 Honors. Next year I will have 1 class, 1 AP Class.
4. While I am doing my High School work, I am also going to a community college. Where I will receive my AA. I realize that this AA isn’t going to transfer over to a top university. But thats the reason I haven’t taken as much High School, but it still shows I have taken many college level courses…
5. No extracurrical activities
6. I take SAT in October. What score do I need? Or should get to get into a Top University?
I want to go towards the business world. So I want to go to University of Pennsylvania. Not as big as Harvard, but still hard to get into .
Will I get in? How much do universities like the fact that I have a AA by High School? What kind of SAT scores will I need? And what are my chances if I do well?

You will also need at least three SAT II scores 700+.
UPenn will not like the no extracurriculars .. Have you done anything else where you have shown leadership & commitment? You also need an excellent, unordinary essay, & very very strong recommendations. You should take as many AP’s as possible – can you change/ do you want to change your schedule now for senior year?
Best of luck! We will be in competition this fall. =P
Good luck.
a sport or drama, anything, glee club (whtever the heck that is) , its like proof you can get along with other kids or something I think
then get a great SAT score
