<p>The deadline was in a few hours and I had just stumbled across the intro essay. Like an idiot I wrote the essay like anyone would for "Why Penn?". Am I already rejected? The main supplement essay is something I really like. So is the CA essay. So should I consider myself as someone who's going to receive a letter stating Sorry you're rejected?</p>
<p>The question that was asked was essentially, “Why do you want to come to Penn”. If you answered, “I want to come to Penn because…” then you answered the essay appropriately. I don’t know why you would think you did something wrong.</p>
<p>He is talking about the optional essay, in which he did address the wrong prompt.</p>
