@bubari I took ib instead of ap so i don’t know much, but shouldn’t you send scores via collegeboard or sth?
things like research abstract, portfolio could be submitted directly to portal but i doubt that a student can self-report his or her own score…
wouldn’t it be amazing to come back to this thread a year later as a penn’22?
i just imagined and i got goosebumps [-O<
Yupp! @vaselineeee
@bubari I’m sure that if they see you’ve updated your application, they’ll do their best to look at it. Of course i’m not an admissions officer but that’s the decent thing to do
Just dreamed of getting accepted… hope its a good sign and hope we get to see each other at penn next year!!
Good luck everybody! Hope you have a great time at Penn next year cause there’s no way I’m getting in.

I’m an international student, so for me the results come out 14th morning and I’m in a major dilemma because a I leave for a school trip the same morning. Do you guys think I should check them before I leave or should I just wait till I’m back? (won’t have internet there and I’ll be back 15th night) I’m way too confused because if I check it before there’s a high chance I’ll ruin the trip for myself 
@iwantpizza same here! it is 9AM for me… in the middle of the class lol
i would advise to check it after the trip but 15th night is a bit too long…
do you know anyone that applied to penn(in your school/anyone in your trip)?
@BigHarshDaddy dang you have some good stats/ECs
i think your admission may depend on essays and rec letters…
good luck!
@iwantpizza Decisions come out two hours before my physics final haha. I don’t know what I am gonna do. My phone is gonna be swarmed with updates from College Confidential and Reddit so definitely won’t be able to distract myself from the fact that the decisions are out!
what percentage of the incoming class is students w/ legacy?
@vaselineeee according to The Daily Pennsylvanian, 16% of ED applicants were legacies
