Called the admissions office and they said decisions will be out Christmas morning, so you can oPENN the email along with your other gifts..

disclaimer: i did not call the admissions office, this is just a joke lol
 
Too much ePENNephrine in this thread right now...
 
Well, I guess if we don't get emails soon we'll KNOW PENN INTENDED to drop it all tomorrow.

Hell yeah, Mad Hatter and Kano mixing it up at Penn:

Care for one lump of sugar, or two?
Jaundice is yellow, cyanosis is blue.
Looks like my bacterial culture grew,
And I have a little bit of blood on my shoe.



Not my best effort...

Yale and Penn on the same day... These are the last 2 schools that I'm waiting for so I guess we'll see how my application cycle ends.

Edit: not that anybody cares though lol

I still don't understand sharpie's pun... maybe I'm just not smart enough for this school....
 
Making us wait another day after taking the system down for maintenance is reprePENNsible.

All joking aside, if they really want to figure out how to get the best class together, they just need to come to this forum and read the thread. That should be standard practice.

and protonate don't feel bad, I would have totally missed it if Deer hadn't brought it back up. When I first read it I was confused as to why sharpie decided to start yelling halfway through the post.

example of the beauty of small group sessions, right? helping each other get it 🙂
 
No reason to PENNic, we'll find out soon enough. It will be glorious.

Haha you guys are the best. This is the most hilarious pre-decision-neurotic group activity I've seen on a thread (Columbia's what-were-your-interviewer's-initials is a close second).

Well I'm going to go out now and MAYBE WHEN I COME BACK IT'LL all be over. Good luck everyone!

I apologize, couldn't resist.

Edit: to be clear, I'm not equating this neurotic anticipation with the aforementioned "trouble"... I just like the song =).
 
Well, it's back to work for me. This has sincerely been enjoyable, and I will see you all on the morrow, hopefully with good news in tow.
 
I think I've calmed down. What a test drive they took us on though...wow
 
Looks like Peyton Manning is gonna make his decision tomorrow as well. Where do you guys think he'll choose? Looks like its either Arizona or Denver

I think he'll go to one of the teams in PENNsylvania

oh no wait that was not at all clever...... 😳
 
This school is totally sliding in the rankings. I think a lot of you should consider emailing Penn right now and withdrawing. You don't want to go to a school that's on the decline. I'll probably withdraw too. Actually likely will... ;-)

EDIT: Okay, so i mis-saw and it's actually tied for 2nd. just as bad in my opinion....

You know, I think you're right. I think that tomorrow morning at 8 eastern everybody should call and withdraw their application - best not to sully oneself by association.
 
WAITLISTED



the idea of checking my status until after work. Sorry, couldn't resist.
 
Hah good for you. My phone battery is going to die if I keep refreshing my email, SDN, and the status site, and it's only 10 am....
 
Hoodat said:
Just to up the hilarious level of anxiety in this thread, I thought I'd direct your attention to this blurb on the Penn website: "The Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania has concluded the interview program for the 2012 admissions cycle.

All final decisions for interviewed candidates will be released in early March."

Early March!!!!!!!!!! Ruh-roh...

Soo much for early March...

Well, to be honest I said that only as a joke....I don't have that kind of willpower. I'm not sure anyone does...

What is colloquially known as "push e-mail" makes it easy. And I don't have a smartphone 🙂
 
Not to be a pessimist, but are we 100% sure that decisions come out today?
 
anyone thinking that now that Yale has released, Penn will follow suit? or have we all resigned to it being tomorrow/thurs? 😕
 
urgh! im so tired of this wait! lol.. upenn is the last school whose decision im waiting on..
 
me toooo and its been such a long wait. so ready for all the suspense in this process to be over!
