Penn ED 2015 INTERVIEW Thread

<p>Good news! I finally got my interview yesterday over the phone yesterday. My interviewer had been swamped with his investment banking work and didn’t get around to my interview until just recently. So I guess the hard deadline for interviews is today. :D</p>

<p>I had my interview at Starbucks it was nerve wrecking I came like an hour early. It was ridiculous, but even though I actually had a good time we had laughs good conversation. overall I can’t say if it was a great interview or not because as silly as it sounds I don’t want to jinx my interview :)</p>

<p>Hello,
I heard that some of you had interview done one or two weeks ago. My was done yesterday. She metioned that she will send a report to penn.
If the Decision release is on December 10th, there is not much time left for the school officers to review all the applications.</p>

<p>Thx</p>

<p>Well, they started reviewing before… like a week or two ago, so it’s not that big a deal…</p>

<p>Thx.
Does penn send likely letter before their final decision?</p>

<p>Only for athletes.</p>

<p>^ Actually, for RD at least, Penn also has started sending out academic likely letters:</p>

<p>This is for the best of the best though.</p>

<p>^ So when did you get yours? :)</p>

<p>Mocking me, eh =________=
I’m expecting a rejection, tbh.</p>

<p>Euroazn, why are you expecting a rejection so adamantly?!</p>

<p>45percenter, that article is from March 2010.</p>

Did you not see my chance thread!?!?
Did you not see my GPA!?!?!
Do you not see my predicament!?!?</p>

<p>Euroazn you have a good of a chance as any. You won’t be rejected! I think deferment or more likely than not, acceptance. :)</p>

<p>CC post count is unfortunately uncorrelated with college acceptances =(</p>

<p>

I know–that’s why I qualified it with the phrase, “for RD at least.” :)</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Lucky for my noobie self though…me with my insignificant 234 posts :wink: But your EC’s are certainly notable and your scores are great. They aren’t going to discount all of that.</p>

<p>You’re right. They will pause to admire them, and then reject me.</p>

<p>Gotta love 1-minute decisions <3</p>

<p>Okay, so I suppose I’ll post this for the RD applicants like me (and any other future aspirant for UPenn 2016 and beyond)</p>

<p>Just had my interview. It was at a coffeehouse; she told me to dress casual but I still went with slacks and a button down. She was nice, asked the general questions (Why Penn, tell me about yourself, strengths, weaknesses, etc) with a few more of the creative questions. She was reading them off a sheet. But yeah, I think it went well overall. Lasted about an hour. I brought a resume and all that jazz. It wasn’t as bad as I expected haha. First college interview finally out of the way!</p>

<p>Good luck to all future interviewees! (:</p>

<p>^^What’s the next step in the process?Is the ‘thank you’ supposed to be by email or postal mail(for those that have interviews at the interviewer’s house)?</p>
