<p>Yeah its pretty unpredictable, since it’s a brand new program. Hopefully they do accept more people who are ED applicants.</p>
<p>I’m really sorry guys but im applying ed as well</p>
<p>It’s okay, I guess I can forgive you ;]</p>
<p>I have a strong feeling that given the number of spots (4+/-) it’s likely to be a lower than 50% acceptance rate…</p>
<p>haha yea, realistically it’ll probably be more around the normal ED rate. If I don’t get in, I’ll personalize a very similar major somewhere else…so all is not lost</p>
<p>This is legit making me feel antsy. Particularly because my senior year grades haven’t been particularly great; so, I feel as if ED is my only chance. Junior Year grades were about as good as my grades are going to get.</p>
<p>where else is everyone applying to besides penn</p>
<p>Bad news: ED apps rose by 17 percent, ED acceptance rate is gonna down to 26ish percent
Good news: They accept 1/2 the class ED</p>
<p>That means there are more like 10 spots for this major</p>
<p>Even though I really hope I don’t have to apply anywhere else, I’m also applying to Northwestern, Ann Arbor, Madison, maybe Carnegie Mellon, maybe Tufts, and maybe some reaches like Princeton or Stanford.</p>
<p>University of michigan (ann arbor), Columbia, University of Chicago, and Northwestern. </p>
<p>Where did you get the stats for the bad and good news holycau?</p>
<p>Penn’s newspaper, but I’m only conjecturing (?) about the 10 spots</p>
<p>I think the 1600 is basically just hypothetical. The 17% is, however, an actual statistic. I think Penn openly admits 33.33% of the Penn Class of 2015 is made up of early decision applicants.</p>
<p>Maybe the majority will make up Wharton applicants…? One can only hope.</p>
<p>Yea this kinda sucks. but in reality were applying to a brand new major/program so i dont know how much this actually bothers me considering we have no previous number of applicants to base anything off of. does anyone have a guess on how many early applicants this major is going to have</p>
<p>over/under 40</p>
<p>I applied too!</p>
<p>over/under 40 sounds like a good number to me. </p>
<p>And, SchsKid1 if you don’t mind me asking, what school do you go to? My School’s initials are SCHS.</p>
<p>Did all of you guy submit SAT subject tests? And if so, which subjects? I took them today, but I’m considering canceling my score, because I’m pretty sure I didn’t get an 800/790 that’s apparently expected on Math II… :/</p>
<p>I submitted my Math II , 790</p>
<p>didn’t submit sat 2s, just sat and act. looks like my 760/35 math and 32 science will probably be my downfall…</p>
<p>My scores are decent but I think my gpa will be my downfall. Hopefully, it doesn’t matter that much 'cause I got a 36 science and 35 math.</p>
<p>I just took Math II and Biology yesterday, but I was sick and ended up throwing up and passing out 2/3 through Math II. I’m seriously considering canceling my scores, but then I won’t have any…?</p>
<p>Thoughts?</p>
<p>I would think if you’ve done well on ap/ib science/math tests, act science/math sections, and rigorous science/math classes at school, you should be fine without sending them. When I visited the school, they said act=sat+sat 2s.</p>
