drue13 Posted November 17, 2008 Report Share Posted November 17, 2008 Im a 2010 IB Student and I would like to know how many points i have to score to get into a university like U Penn. Taking into consideration that i am in the tennis and soccer team of my school, the mun club and that i also play basketball for a club outside school. Plus, i am fluent in 3 languages.

IBStuck Posted November 17, 2008 Report Share Posted November 17, 2008 (edited) top US unis will look for top scores. if you go through the university section here you will see different score listed off. let me see if i can find the acceptance pagefor you from last year so you can see what people got. i go to a smaller US uni so my score didn't have to be spectacular,but if have other questions about US unis feel free to ask.

Forester Posted November 18, 2008 Report Share Posted November 18, 2008 Schools like Harvard want 7,7,7 at HL (predicted) As long as you do well in grades 9, 10, 11 and 12 (where 11 and 12 are your IB years), then you should be fine even if your final grade is rather low in comparison. I would say that SAT scores are more important than final IB grades. Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
IBStuck Posted November 18, 2008 Report Share Posted November 18, 2008 you SAT I and II will be just as important as if not more that is true. but once a school has accepted you that doesn't mean that they won't take it away. they have done that before. so make sure that they are both top sets of scores.
