Penn CAS Apps & Selectivity?

<p>Haha, the responses of most people, including myself, are ridiculous.</p>

<p>pbr, it’s nice that your son is more interested in fit than name.</p>

<p>ditto… “Penn > all”</p>

<p>I would like to third the sentiment (and by sentiment, I mean FACT) that Penn > all :)</p>

<p>We far prefer muertea to EATYOURCEREAL… go visit a new board cereal</p>

<p>apatel_55 is the president of the penn board and thus speaks for all penn students in her posts</p>

<p>yessir :slight_smile: 10char</p>

<p>oh, and CAS admit rate was only 13%</p>

<p>actually it was 17%, as our good friend muerteapablo proves here:

<p>No, it’s 13% for RD only. It’s written on the letter I got from Penn.</p>

<p>who said anything about RD only? considering only RD is ridiculous when penn admits such an obscene portion of their class ED. it’s 17% overall. if penn was like most schools and didn’t take advantage of ED to make itself look better, it’d be ~20% overall.</p>

<p>trollllllllll</p>

<p>anyway, most of us are RD… so 13%</p>

<p>actually, only half of you are RD, since penn admits half its class ED. and i’m talking about penn as a whole. i really don’t care about how you got in RD; i’m only ■■■■■■■■ the penn forum to counter posters like muerteapablo and nobromo who spew ******** about how penn is the greatest college in the world and how cornell is bad, while cornell’s college of arts and sciences was actually as selective as penn’s, and would be more selective if it admitted the same insane percentage of students ED as penn does.</p>

<p>

Why do you care?! I don’t understand peoples’ obsession with rankings and who is better than who. You all enjoy your schools, that’s great. They’re both highly ranked and renowned schools. Isn’t that good enough!?</p>

<p>Steven, that “than who” should be “than whom” haha… and the “You all enjoy your schools,” should be “You all enjoy your schools;” lol you know I’m just messing with you… (I know him guys… we go to rival schools in the same town)</p>

<p>Penn is the greatest school ever…not bc of the admit rate/ed/rd whatever but just bc we like it. okay? haha we don’t really care about all those #s tooo much…</p>

<p>Well, uh. YOU CAN’T INSERT 'HAHA’S INTO SENTENCES AND YOU CAN’T ABBREVIATE BECAUSE AND AND AND -head spins off-</p>

<p>Those things don’t make the sentences grammatically incorrect. (:))</p>

<p>You could’ve put a comma after ‘haha’. :(</p>

<p>fap fap fap fap fap fap</p>

<p>Yeah, I could’ve, but a decided to put … instead; I think that should suffice. :)</p>
