University of Pennsylvania

Posted by TsukaharaAntariticus Sep. 24, 2008 @ 2:06 AM EDT

I think i finally decided what college I want to go to: University of Pennsylvania. It seems to have everything: it's Ivy league, a tier I school (ranked #6 by us news and world report),a green speech code rating from FIRE, suite style apartment dorms, It's in a state that I love and I doubt anybody I know is going there.
The bad news is is that it has a 16.9% acceptance rate. I will be applying as a transfer student so things are a bit different for me. I may forgo getting my associates and instead just try transferring in as a junior. I think I can do that. I will have to check. Or I may get my associates and then try. it depends on which would be easier for me to do. I will probably have to take the SAT again(or the ACT) so I can get a higher score. And I absolutely MUST get my GPA up. I will also need teacher recommendations but those shouldn't be too hard to get. My teachers tend to like me. I will also have to learn how to study properly, start doing my homework, and live on my own.
My three biggest obstacles right now are my SAT scores, the fact I'm a year behind schedule, and this one D I got in Composition and Rhetoric.
If I fail to get in I can always go to one of my other two choices. I'd prefer to go to University of Pennsylvania though.

Things could get interesting.

So you change from FIRE to Green Speech?

Dude I would so LOVE to be a Fire Fighter!

But anyway...I do hear that U.P. is a Good School.

Good Luck on that SAT!
-----------------------------------
Here's some helpful advice.

When filling in bubbles...hold the pencil sideways...the index finger and thumb holding the angled head (so your practically holding the tip)...then hold the end in-between your wedding ring finger and your pinky.

Practice little bubbles and you will see that it's MUCH faster.
-----------------------------------
As for answering the questions...

ALWAYS skip the section you KNOW you have the most amount of difficulty.
-----------------------------------
Be careful of certain words....

words like "ALWAYS" or "NEVER"
are usually False whether in answers or questions.

words like "Sometimes" or "Maybe"
are usually True.. ' '
-----------------------------------
Just GO for it!

Set your GOALS! Keep the GOAL in mind! Understand that getting from point A-B will reap certain GOOD benefits.
-----------------------------------
Stay Head Strong and avoid distractions...

But don't forget to chill after a hard day of studying...other wise you'll burn out!

Firefighter?
What i'm referring to is the rating given to the school by the Foundation for Individual Rights in Education (FIRE for short). Green Light is the best you can get from them.

Thanks for the tips. That could prove helpful.
