UPenn Class of 2018 ED Applicants

<p>But for everyone hoping to “zone out” on Monday… Sucks to be me because that day marks the start of my exams! Help!</p>

<p>@thrownaway. Thanks. I hope you get in as well. </p>

<p>And tomorrow, the day count will drop below 7… I can’t believe everything’s happened so quickly. I still remember my first day of high school.</p>

<p>@absingha big arrested development fan!
and @king2567 all 9 seasons completed of Everybody Loves Raymond!</p>

<p>We should all make pact that if we were to get in, we should tell each other who we really are and our respective usernames (obviously not publicly in these forums). </p>

<p>I’m so anxious it’s unbelievable. </p>

<p>@Harrovian lol it seems so wierd that high school will soon be a thing of the past. The friends you’ve made over the past 4 years most likely won’t be with you when you’re moving on to college…Too crazy to even fathom</p>

<p>@Harrovian @absingha @king2567 @GottaGetThat24 which school did you apply to?
any VIPER applicants here?</p>

<p>Haha @GottaGetThat24… an international applicant… I will be having a whole lotta change</p>

<p>I’ve been checking the Philadelphia weather reports, I’m so obsessed! The best part about getting in I think would be spending all winter and spring buying things for next year :)) like rain boots, and winter clothes… And penn gear of course!</p>

<p>@GottaGetThat24</p>

<p>I know. It’s rather scary. Most people at my school will stay and go to state uni. There will be very few of us that end up moving and I’m pretty sure i’ll be the only person at Penn if I get in. </p>

<p>@mumford CAS. And No, didn’t apply to Viper. I thought about applying for Huntsman though, but decided against it. I didn’t quite feel like the program was right for me. International Relations is more of a very large secondary interest than a primary interest.</p>

<p>God that Monday… I’ll be a work when the bomb drops. And I work at a daycare taking care of a bunch of insane 2nd graders. That’s gonna be a rough day… There is a 50% chance the room falls to chaos because I’ll be so distracted.
Also just a curious point, I’m from Pennsylvania, Philly burbs in fact. I don’t know if this helps or hurts me. I know a lot of kids apply, but does Penn like… have to take a certain number of kids from PA, or the Philly area? Also at my school it seems that every single year only ONE senior goes to Penn… And I know several other strong candidate from my school applying ED. Ugh. At least the two kids ranked higher than me are applying to Harvard and Cornell and NOT Penn… That would suck. But yeah. Eight days… The Ides of December are near… =O</p>

<p>Ahhhhhhhhh im freaking out!!! SEVEN DAYSSSS and I have absolutely no motivation to get any homework done :frowning: Also, is it horrible that I have a folder on my computer of all the Penn gear I want to buy on the extremely low chance I get in?</p>

<p>@riar2496 lol I did that too and all the stuff I would buy for all my family members</p>

<p>I was actually looking at Penn gear today, lol. There is so much I want, but I feel really bad asking for more stuff especially after Grad photos. </p>

<p>(And I also typed up my stats for the decision thread. Just missing my reaction and the final decision)</p>

<p>@pville - same… wouldn’t that be funny if we ended up knowing each other? lol.</p>

<p>and i’m doing a reaction video! but if i don’t get in, i will never show anyone and hopefully 20 years down the line, i will love whatever college i go to and smile thinking when one door closes, another one opens.</p>

<p>and yes. if we get in, we should definetly say who we are irl and have a CC meetup</p>

<p>What will you do the moment you know you are accepted/rejected? </p>

<p>I’ll start. If accepted, i’ll jump 35 feet in the air. If rejected, keep rejection letter on my bulletin board. It’ll motivate me to work harder on other. Also I may or may not drown in my own tears. </p>

<p>What about you people?</p>

<p>I think I’ll do a reaction video. If it’s good I’ll post it on youtube. If it’s bad, I think I’ll keep it and hopefully look at it during the entire application season to serve as a reminder and a motivator.</p>

<p>I’ve already planned it. If I get in, I’m gonna yell… #&@$ YEAH!! Give a big first pump, go out to my car, drive around the block blasting You #&@$ing Did It by Jason Mraz. Come back home and cry, not do any homework, then maybe go back out for a drive to contemplate life and how happy I am that I got in and don’t have to write more essays and relax the rest of the year. Either way there will be tears.</p>

<p>If I get in, I’ll freak out and tell my whole family, and post it on facebook. Then get a java chip smoothie to celebrate, and start ordering my Penn gear online!</p>

<p>If I get rejected, I’ll swallow sadness. Revise my college list, and start doing essays. Then I guess just try to keep myself busy until April…</p>

<p>If I get in, I think I’ll wake my whole family up and then go driving around my village and wake my friends up :stuck_out_tongue:
Then make it up to them by taking them out for breakfast.
If I don’t get in I’ll just lie in bed a bit longer and text my friends. Then wait for my family to wake up and take them out for breakfast to say thank you for the support. Take the day off and get to work on college essays the next day.</p>

<p>“Either way there will be tears”. Yep that sums it up. Just tells how big this moment is going to be.</p>

<p>3 45 AM in the night… I am gonna bang my desk really hard, whether i am accepted or rejected! No idea about getting deferred which I think is my highest probabiliyy</p>
