Hi
I took the TOEFL in May of this year and I got my results through the mail in about 2 weeks. So I think you'll get yours in about 2 weeks as well, and I don't see why they will wait for another 2-3 weeks to mail the results to the schools. What I suggest you do is that once you get your results, give them a call and ask them if they have sent the results to the schools as well. If they haven't what you can do is get a photocopy of the results that they sent you and get it notarized and fax it to UPenn. I think UPenn accepts notarized copies at the time of application, but I don't think BU does. You might want to confim this with UPenn. Anyway, even if your TOEFL scores reach the schools by mid to late December, you're still well within the deadlines and so I wouldn't worry too much about it. I know, with the deadlines approaching, you want to get your scores in as soon as possible. You might want to mention this to the TOEFL centre when you call to check on the results. Hope that helps.
Best of luck to you : 🙂
