<p>heh i just got rejected from hopkins =/....although, for some reason, i dont really care. it just reinforces my confidence in my admission to penn for some reason. i honestly dont know why, but i feel like now more than ever that penn is the place i am going to end up. i might get rejected from every other school i applied to, but i shall get into penn. i can never lost faith in myself :), and i wont!</p>
<p>on a side note, im packing for my trip tomorrow.</p>
<p>no offense, but how is penn less selective than the muder capitol university of america?</p>
<p>it isnt, by any means at all. again though, i dont know why i feel this way...its completely illogical. so from your standpoint, i understand the absolute absurdity in my statement. but from my own, for some reason, i cant give any reasons for anything. oh well, we'll just have to wait and see what happens, now wont we?</p>
<p>yea impboy, im feeling you buddy</p>
<p>I just got rejected from hopkins too, but i really feel i might get lucky and get into UPenn.</p>
<p>Find UPenn a nice place to be for the next four years.</p>
<p>My best friend got rejected from Duke... I feel so bad, we are both intls and have a super similar profile, regarding GPA, SATs and ECs. He got rejected form Stanford early and now Duke. I got deferred from Penn early, and am waiting for many unviersities to hear tomorror, or in a few hours actually. After he told me he got rejected now I feel I won't get into any unversities. I didnt applied to any safeties other than the one here in Mexico, which is Ok and I know ill be happy if I end up there, better said, Ill be happy wherever I end up going. But it is not a matter of happines my reason for wanting Penn, is more than that, is different. Anyway.. I just feel Im already rejected from Penn, which sucks haha. At least if I get in itll be super super great. but anyway, this is the way I feel 15hrs before decisions are released. AAAAAAAArrghhhhh. love you all.</p>
<p>I'm kind of freaking out a little bit now. I don't expect to get in (though I'm hoping hoping hoping). I almost didn't even apply. We'll see...hopefully karma comes around and I get an acceptance. Wouldn't that be nice? :)</p>
<p>I'm a bit nervous. I'm sort of having second thoughts about going to Penn, but I'd like to have options, considering I'm applying for financial aid and they could give me a nice award. Penn's a nice school still and I'd be so thrilled if I got in. My SAT's okay (2170) but my Math score is a bit on the average side, and since I'm applying to Wharton, my chances look pretty slim. Sigh. Eight more hours I think (?) till I find out if I'm in or not. :D</p>
<p>just to check the time remaining...coz i am an international.</p>
<p>It's times like these I wonder why I applied to Wharton with a 3.2 UW. Hopefully they'll take pity on someone with upside (800 math, 5-AP Calc) :</p>
<p>Has anyone in Philly received his/her decision yet?</p>
<p>If he/she is a privileged person, maybe :). There are about 3 hrs left until decisions are released.</p>
<p>They mailed the letters on 28th(:p), so people in philly should be getting them today(:))</p>
<p>I received my decision already :)</p>
<p>RD not ED(:))</p>
<p>lol this is lovely...
I just found that since last calculation of GPAs... which were midyear reports, I slipped a rank from 3 to 4 out of 163. LOVELY... which meant all my midyear reports that got sent out showed this.
You know what's even more LOVELY? The kid who overtook my spot was fifth, and now he's not because he's beating me by .005... yup three decimal places.
And what else... he also applied to Penn :)</p>
<p>Today's great...
but like Impboy.. I feel like Penn is where I belong, and don't we ultimately end up in the right place? It's an act of fate... I'm not losing any faith in fate.</p>
<p>only 2 more hours</p>
<p>I couldn't stand the wait any longer so I put in the most Phili based movie I could think of: Rocky. Here's to the underdog!</p>
<p>Abhi, I didn't know that :P. So... there are privileged people :). A couple of hrs are not that much though</p>
