Archive for the ‘sweden ab’ CategoryI’m hoping to apply to uPenn Wharton next year (and possibly the Huntsman program with the duel degree in business and international studies) for ED. If i chose to apply to Huntsman, I would certainly also apply to Wharton without the particular program. With the following, is it worth my time and money to apply or would it be a waste? Academics: Rank: 1/146, all 3 years so far Grades have been consistently A’s and A+’s in every subject I have taken. I have the most rigorous courseload my school offers and take all Honors in every subject for which it is offered. APs: US History, Calculus AB, Physics, English Literature, Psychology (Unfortunately, this is all my school offers) I will have taken 4 full years of French and 3 full years in Spanish, with some independent study in each to improve my skills. SATs: 2260 (M 760, CR 750, W 750) Extra-Circulars: [Note, My school offers VERY few EC activities. I tried forming an FBLA, but only one other person in the entire school would join, no matter what I tried. Therefore, my ECs are limited.] National Merit Scholar I plan to put a lot into my essays and really convey my character. I am heavily interested in politics, international affairs and business. I spend every free moment I have reading international news and business news. That’s why i’m so interested in possibly the Hunstman program. I wish I could have done more in my ECs to show this, like volunteering abroad, international travel programs, internationally focused summer programs, a foreign exchange, but monetary concerns made all these impossible for my family. I will have my recommendation from one of my favorite teachers and the best in the school. She was my English teacher as a Sophomore and will be my AP english teacher this year. She has received several awards and chairs the teacher certification committee for the state. I have learned the most from her and she has really taught me to be a critical thinker and to develop my higher level thinking skills. I know she will write me an excellent letter of recommendation. So… do I have any chance whatsoever? I know I’m competing against people way more qualified than me, who went to the most elite private schools, have like 10 AP’s and 2350 SAT scores, have spent summers building schools in developing countries and are national debate, Model UN, FBLA, etc champions. The SAT scores are messed up, the papers were scrambled. Here are the real scores: Math (Level 2): 770, World History: 770, French: 760, Biology: 750 You should certainly apply if you’re interested because your application would not seem out of range to the admissions office. I really hope it works out for you, but remember that if it doesn’t, it’s just because they have such a large applicant pool, not because you wouldn’t do very well there. Good luck in the process! PS – Double check your SAT Subject Test scores, I’ve never seen a 765 or a 775 before. Sweden: Sweden’s industry is overwhelmingly in private control According to OECD, deregulation, globalization, and technology sector growth have been key productivity drivers Sweden is a world leader in privatized pensions and pension funding problems are relatively small Declining tax rates in Sweden the average inflation in Sweden has been one of the lowest among European countries since the mid-1990s, largely because of deregulation and quick utilization of globalization A bursting real estate bubble caused by inadequate controls on lending combined with an international recession and a policy switch from anti-unemployment policies to anti-inflationary policies resulted in a fiscal crisis in the early 1990s.[60] Sweden’s GDP declined by around 5%.

In comparison, Qualcomm basically lives off government subsidies. Okay so i haven’t really checked to see if anyone’s asked this so yeah. Sorry if it’s already been asked. Looky!
