<p>My guess is that the admissions officers at Penn have already begun making decisions, seeing as some people sent in apps over a month ago, and everyone else sent them in within the past 2 weeks or whatever. Isn't it weird to think that you might already be in/out/deferred, but you just don't know it yet? </p>
<p>Or do you think that no decisions have been made because not everyone's materials are in and it's likely that many people who will have interviews haven't had them yet?...</p>
<p>Yeah, I’m missing things too. It’s funny though because obviously all of the decisions will be made before December 11th and they could really be made at any point. We could just be chilling in class or hanging out with friends any time in the next few weeks and an admissions officer could be reading our essays/looking over our apps and placing us in the admit or deny “pile”.</p>
