<p>Hey guys!
How is your confidence level? Think you will be accepted, rejected, or deferred. I think I will be deferred, maybe rejected if I am unlucky. My stats are horrible compared to other students applying. I am applying to SEAS, btw. for bioengineering.</p>
<p>ah, I dont really like applying to this thread, but I will. I'm looking at deferred really, but I am also trying to look at a pesemistic approach so I am not too shocked if I am deferred. I will also be much happier this way if I am accepted :). But to be safe, I will say deferred.</p>
<p>BTW, ED to SEAS for bioengineering</p>
<p>wow didnt know that there were this many people interested in bioengineering. im doin ED to SEAS for BE also, but im probably gettin deferred...</p>
<p>damn u scared me with the title of the thread!
i could've sworn i still had 31 days left to count. lol</p>
<p>ummmm im praying praying praying for a CONGRATULATIONS. but hey, you never know.</p>
<p>I hope with all my heart that I got accepted.
I would be happy (but not totally) being deferred (Huntsman).</p>
<p>I do have a slight chance for acceptance at Wharton...</p>
<p>oooh...I hope I get into Wharton...</p>
<p>E_E</p>
<p>I can't wait until December 15th +...</p>
<p>10% accepted, 60% deferred, 30% rejected</p>
<p>praying here..lol</p>
<p>getting deferred is depressing b/c then you have to wait till april....not what i want...considering i want my decision to be made by december and get the suspense over with already!</p>
<p>abhi89--Penn is actually quite good for bioengineering and bioengineering has been a popular major for hopeful doctors. I also think more and more Indian and Chinese peole will be majoring because all our parents want us to be doctors. I think I will have to go to Siberia if I don't become a doctor. Seriously, all my cousins are in med school</p>
<p>I hate to say this but the majority of the people who get deferred ED will get rejected in the RD round. It's a sad truth. They will admit the same percent of deferred applicants as their their regular admit rate. So let's suppose in the spring they accept 17% of all applicants. So 17% of those deferrees will be accepted.</p>
<p>i would say with almost complete confidence "rejected" unless theyre generous with the Deferrals: ED to CAS, 33 ACT, 2170 SAT, 3.84UW, good ECs but very very average essays</p>
<p>how would you know your essay is average? it's a subjective thing</p>
<p>adidas3130..., if your getting rejected, then I have absolutely no chance. Looking at it optimistically, I'm hoping to get deferred. I think I can work my way in if deferred.</p>
<p>sristi - lol yup im indian. strangely tho, i actually dont think i'll end up in med school (shock, gasps). bioengineering/bme as a career would be much more interesting than medicine b/c its more physics, chem and problem solving. but im gonna guess that many in penn bioengineering will eventually become doctors.</p>
<p>many are going to get mba too...</p>
<p>my sister is doing that. biomed engineering +mba</p>
<p>go into medical devices field.</p>
<p>I'm a very optimistic guy, so I feel like I would (or better word, should) get accepted. However, I'm trying to look at it more realistically, maybe borderline between accepted/deferred. 50:50 either way.</p>
<p>By the way, anybody know around when Penn might release info. about the ED pool (like how many total applicants and how many to what school, etc....) If anywhere, it'll probably come on dailypennsylvanian.com! I hope there is an article on these statistics, so we get a general sense of where we are before the decisions.</p>
<p>I am expecting a reject or defer (ED to wharton).</p>
<p>I say this not because of subpar transcript, but because of "average" sat scores (1940).</p>
<p>but I'm still praying :)</p>
<p>Some days I feel like I'll definitely get admitted, other days I feel like a deferral is coming...I really doubt an outright rejection, though.</p>
<p>Jyankees I pretty much feel the same way as you. I had kind of a mini freak out over it all today, and I have this one friend who's always like YOU'RE GETTING IN... and I made him flat out agree that if I don't get in I'm holding him responsible. It somehow kind of makes me feel better about things lol</p>
<p>im expecting 60% rejected 39% deferred 1% accepted lol</p>
<p>haha yeah i'm pretty much with pyar on that one...</p>
