<p>How is the minority population? Is it a diverse school or are there mostly white people? </p>
<p>Do you think econ majors from Penn can take courses at Wharton? And do they also get recruited a lot, or do only people from Wharton get good jobs? </p>
<p>What is the core curriculum for Penn (not wharton).</p>
<p>Other Apps (quicker list): Pitt, Yale, Cornell, Georgetown, Wisconsin, Case</p>
<p>a took ap calc ab in highschool
i could have taken either 103 or 104 but i figured i mine as well have an easy class get an easy a and take 104 next semester.</p>
<p>penn's minority population is very large and diverse. there are people from differenc nationalities all over campus i would not say it is mostly white people. penns website can give you more info on teh exact numbers</p>
<p>also any student can take any classs offered at penn so econ majors at hte college can take wharton classes.</p>
<p>econ majors are well respected and recruited.</p>
<p>there is no set core curriculum at penn. in the college there is just a certain set of sectors that you must fulfiill..... these are broad and have a lot of choices of classes within them</p>
<p>its really easy to get downtown. we are on 33 street so sometiems you can walk down town if you dont mind.... a cab works but it is a couple bucks. public trans is prob the best its a buck 25 to get on a train or a subway and they take you downtown or wherever. you can scalp eagles tickets if you are willing to spend the money, other than taht htey are hard to get

<p>just a hint of advice. send your apps in early</p>
<p>like how early?</p>
<p>What do you mean? How early? I'm planning to send mine in the week of Nov. 1st (probably a few days earlier but no more than a week before Nov. 1st). Is this bad? Do I have some sort of advantage? Is there something you aren't telling us.. lol..</p>
<p>well i cant say anything specific, but if i were you i would send my app in as soon as i could get it done :)</p>
<p>why? they don't look at them until 8 Nov, i thought :?</p>
<p>do you know how many applications penn gets????<br>
think about it would you like to read the last one????
i have spoken to admissions personal.... trust me they arent in a good mood reading teh last ones</p>
<p>Doesn't the regional representative or whatever read them first? How does the Penn admissions process work exactly? Can anyone give a brief (or specific) overview? Thanks</p>
<p>im not sure the exact process. i have spoken to many admissions officers since i have been here. </p>
<p>i cant offer much info besides just saying, if you can turn your app in early DO IT. (you learn lots of admissions tricks when you get here)</p>
<p>How early is early? The deadline is 2 weeks away, and I still have my other essay to complete and the short answers to finish. I expect to finish them this weekend.</p>
<p>early is just before the deadline. there ar a lot of hints and tips to have a better chance of getting in. one of them is to apply as early as you can. it is of course up to you, but i got in</p>
<p>has anyone sent in their application?</p>
<p>I haven't even fill out mine</p>
<p>Submit your applications online electronically.
do not handwrite and mail your application. we live in a world of technology and the internet. everything at penn is done electronically and through email. be smart do your application that way</p>
