<p>first of all congrats to everyone who got accepted yesterday, you worked hard and you deserve to go to your dream school. anyways I was deferred from wharton and was wondering if anyone knew what the chances are of getting in in April. i know something like 10% of deferred kids get in, but im interested to know if anybody happens to know how it is for wharton. im kind of upset since i had my heart set on the school. i thought that if you dont get in, then you just get deferred, but after seeing that some people got rejected, it gives me a little bit of hope that they kept me for a reason. any suggestions as to what i can do to improve my chances will be greatly appreciated.</p>
<p>Ditto, deferred from College.
I don't get it. Everyone who commented on my chances from CC said I had a good-to-great shot.
Now I have to wait 4 months... I wish so bad that I could be part of that 10% that gets in after being deferred.</p>
<p>deferall for me to wharton. my cousin got in after being deffered so its possible. I heard 12% somewhere.
Just hope for the best</p>
<p>Same - deferred from Wharton. I'm so ****ed!
I'm screwed too because I will definitely have 2 B's this semester.. and my midterm grades will be horrible because my classes are so hard!</p>
<p>Same for me only i applied to the dual degree which was wharton and nursing and I was deferred.
If you look back at the app it said on the dual (green one) sheet that there was a higher probability of deferral if you apllied to a joint program. This was because they wanted to give the regular decision app. people a shot at admission to such a small program (10 kids). Do you think since I we was deferred from the dual program I was accepted to the nursing school. If i was deffered from the nursing school ( not good enough) why would i not just be rejected your thought please!
also what are you doing to reverse your deferral</p>
<p>I will have one b is that awful. its in ap stat. my counsler said it didnt matter</p>
<p>PennHunter, you were deferred ?! I thought everyone was saying you'd be in.</p>
<p>Anyway, in terms of reversing the deferral, I don't think there's much to do. I'm not gonna be getting any new awards over the next few months, so other than like, writing a letter to Penn or sending in some random rec from Idk where, I don't think there's much to do.</p>
<p>And yeah, my mid-year report is definitely not as good as my junior year grades... Is the mid-year report a factor in admissions? I didn't think it was, I thought it was just so they could check that you aren't getting Cs and Ds in all your classes... ?</p>
<p>well i think it might be if you were differed. I was shocked when i checked my decision. My Counselor cried and i didnt :( . but anyway do you think i was accepted to the nursing school and they just didnt tell me because they didnt know about wharton yet?</p>
<p>PennHunter, is that the Life Sciences dual degree? Vagelos? Don't they have 25 people total?</p>
<p>and the only way to reverse your deferral is to have amazing senior grades and midterms.. arghhhh</p>
<p>i asked my interviewer what to do if i were deferred, he said you can send in a letter to show interest, good awards, original compositions, maybe supplementary essays (i've heard advice against this one tho), and definitely keep up your grades... midterm reports are not a big factor only if you've been accepted.</p>
<p>best of luck to your guys!!!! <3 <3</p>
<p>no its nursing and healthcare management
vagelos would almost be like premed + wharton</p>
<p>dang it, I will have a B in AP Calculus and a B in Honors Chemistry.</p>
<p>I suck at science...and chemistry is hard for me.</p>
<p>There is a SMALL chance that I can pull an A in Chemistry (I have to get an A on the final, which is made by the state and is hard). Calc...little or no chance of an A.</p>
<p>Will this kill my chances if I have 2 B's?</p>
<p>I have gotten all A's except B in Spanish 2, 3, and 4.</p>
<p>Yeah, I'm probably gonna have a high B in English. =/
Bye Penn...</p>
<p>But seriously, if there's any way of getting in contact with someone who was accepted at Penn after being deferred, I think we could all benefit from that... If anyone who fits this description is out there...</p>
