<p>y does the countdown go to the 15th… it’s the 11th</p>
<p>That one is not for Penn. Nirvanatear made that for bswsoccermom’s daughter who applied ED somewhere else. </p>
<p>There is another one that goes to the 11th at 3 PM posted earlier.</p>
<p>16 more days!</p>
<p>@Hopeful_underdog:</p>
<p>I have a bit of a complicated situation. My first choices are Duke and Georgetown. Yet I’ve found, through extensive research, that Duke gives little or no financial aid. So I can’t apply early decision. Georgetown doesn’t offer a single choice early action (like yale does), just an early action that disallows early decision (which means I can’t show commitment as strong as ED… although this means that I’m also showing a lack of commitment by not applying EA. :P). So, though Penn is my third choice, I applied ED because I wanted to use my ED card at an institution that provides superb financial aid. It’s all about the dough, as they say. So the best case scenario would be I get deferred from Penn, get in RD (hopefully better chances because I have the implied ED commitment) then get into Duke and Georgetown and choose from the college with the best financial aid. <em>crosses fingers</em></p>
<p>huh…the results come out 11th december at 3:00pm. real nice. 
GAHHHH I WANNA GET IN SOOOOOOOO BADLY!!!</p>
<p>“Next week is gonna be a breeze too. You’ll wake up one morning and it’ll be 12 days!”</p>
<p>wtan-- it’s that day! ha</p>
<p>We’re gonna wake up one morning and it’ll be December 11. Then, hopeful_underdog is going to say:</p>
<p>“Set Point-- it’s that day! ha”</p>
<p>lawll…you guys are making me nervous. on top of that…im worrying about my chances about getting a study abroad scholarship that i got (and had to reject) last year. I think i’ll be taking a CC hiatus until the 11th :-P</p>
<p>At least it’s on Friday afterschool… we’ll have all weekend to celebrate! 
or cry…</p>
<p>haha I’m actually really happy that I’ll have a whole weekend to get over my rejection ha… and I’m glad I won’t have to go to school the next day and be like “no, like I told you I wouldn’t, I didn’t get in” to everyone who asks. lol</p>
<p>^ i know what you mean.</p>
<p>everyone thinks im gonna get in. “based on your SAT score, they’d be dumb to reject you”</p>
<p>i cant explain that everyone applying has my scores </p>
<p>and for some reason they think 30% admission rate means 100%…</p>
<p>oh well</p>
<p>haha alumium_boat. </p>
<p>So who’s gonna be on CC from 2:30 to 3:00 on the 11th? I have track but I might/don’t want to go, can’t wait till 5:30 to find out the decision! Till then I have Dec. SATs to worry about -_-</p>
<p>I really have no idea what I’ll be doing. I might chill with friends until a little before 3 to keep my mind distracted.</p>
<p>ugh I have newspaper production that entire week…itll be a way to keep my mind off things but it will indeed be stressful…</p>
<p>The last thing I want after spending hours after school and pulling all nighters during that week is to end it with a rejection…how fabulous would that be.</p>
<p>Not very =(</p>
<p>Don’t worry guys! We’ll all get in. :)</p>
<p><em>crosses fingers</em></p>
<p>That’s the week of finals for me…so either way I’m going to be exploding from school! I think I’m just going to have a heart attack every single day until then.</p>
<p>I have grad photo one day after decision day.</p>
<p>So if I get rejected, I’ll look rejected on my grad photo; if in the unlikely event that I get accepted…I’ll have a difficult time posing a contained smile.</p>
<p>ahhhhhhhhhh i am so stressed out
only like 11 days!!!</p>
<p>I wonder if they have made any decisions yet :S :S :S :S</p>
<p>^^^ if they have not yet… they have a lot of work left to do!!</p>
<p>Aren’t those with low SATs, less than 10% rank and no hook ruled out without a full reading? This would leave a lot less to go through manually. Except for legacies which I read somewhere will “guarantee that your application would be read.”</p>
