I'd put money on me getting my first WL/ding from Penn tomorrow...
Just went UR2 yesterday, so I guess I might survive this round 0.0

Disagree. @PennLawAdmissions has been really silent for a decision day tomorrow. If they don't tweet about it by 10:00am tomorrow it isn't tomorrow. Other thoughts though? Very curious about guesses.

Doesn't it seem like an extremely tight turnaround to have the "wave" we saw on friday followed by additional admits today (if they're coming in batches/waves/tranches and not individually)?

UR1 as of 1/5.... Do you think they are just holding off on sending to UR2 because I'm pretty much doomed? I sent in a Why Penn recently, also...

Speaking as someone who is still UR1 12/11 - chill.

1/5 was only a week ago. I'm sure you're fine.

Unfortunately, I get this whenever I click on the link to the status checker:

Development error page
Click here to log in.
What follows is a bunch of gibberish about session variables and such.

And when I do click "here" to log in, I get some sort of Aces2 log in page where I need to enter a school code..
I've been getting this page for several days now, is anyone else having the same problem as me? :cry:
Have you fixed this problem? I keep having this problem and cannot check my status...

Based on last year, it looks like there should be a decision day sometime this week. 2013-2014 shows decision days on Thursday 1/9, Tuesday 1/14, Wednesday 1/15, and Thursday 1/16. Good luck for all of us below!

Same as wowchromosome, UR1 1/5.

I had only started to notice at the end of the 3 weeks between complete and UR1 that it was taking a few weeks. It's only been 9 days since UR, I wouldn't even start to worry till early February at the very least...
