Good luck! But don't let people get your hopes up with all of this one-in-a-million talk

Would love to hear from Penn today!! Going on last year's timeline, we could really expect calls to go out at any point in the afternoon between now and Friday. Fingers crossed for everyone!

Does anyone know if the status checker also updates? Or is it not worth checking?

From reading last year's thread, it seemed that if the status checker did update it was long enough after the phone call that it was not worth checking

Checking-in. I finally got my fee waiver yesterday so I submitted today. I seem to fall into their YP category, 171 3.73. I had a much easier time writing the team essay than the Dean's essay, and I wrote flat out that Penn was my top choice in it...because they are.

What in the world makes Penn take 12 weeks when Duke takes about a week and a half.

So I guess today is not the day...tomorrow? this week? Gah Penn why do you do this to us?

I could be wrong, but my understanding is that schools YP people above both 75ths. With the optional essay and your numbers I'd guess your a strong admit.

A couple of people said YP in the what are my chances board, that makes me feel wonderful. Thank you for that!

Does anybody here plan on doing a MBA/JD if they get in?

Submitted ED2 Monday morning. Went Under Committee Review today. 3.7/167 with two years work experience and decent softs. Also Philly ties. Had good recs (3 academic and 1 work -- probably overkill) and did the Dean's essay. Hoping to hear back in the next week or two!

Agreed - I think you're probably an admit based on numbers alone. I've thought about the JD/MBA, but Penn also has a certification program with Wharton that I'd be pretty interested in (if I get a call)

I briefly looked at the certification thing, it might be a better option for me since I won't have any work experience after college and Wharton will be tough to get into without it. Hopefully GMATs will be a breeze after the LSATs
