Holy crap I completely lost track of the day, and forgot that a bunch of you will be heading to penn tomorrow!
Hope you all do awesome! Good luck!

welllll?!
Sorry, anxiously waiting to hear how it all went down.
more details later but it went really well! sad news is this yr they're not calling admitted students. apparently it got awkward during happy hrs when some students got called and others didn't
Haha, did they really say that's why?? They were still in the room making decisions around 7:30-8pm tonight... I don't think people really ever found out during happy hour.
So do you guys get emailed the same day or are they completely revamping the system?
P.s., I only say this because you mentioned you're Asian... are you the girl I met at Saxby's this morning?
...But some other SDNers survived first semester Penn: Shanomong, Ben and Me, dgm, tpad40 are a couple...
Forgotten again![]()
just got the call! i've been accepted!!! woohoo! if i weren't too chicken to sign on on my work computer i'd add lotsa smileys!
Got my thanks-but-no-thanks from the VMD/PhD program today. It doesn't even say anything about the VMD admissions process though, but at least it's a much more polite kiss-off than I got from Davis two years ago or from CSU last month.![]()
Out of curiousity, has anyone gotten an interview invite through snail mail from Penn? So far they have only contacted me through snail mail and I don't know whether to be more nervously watching my inbox or my mailbox....
See you both there! I got the 15th too! I listed SA, exotics and wildlife and I'm OOS
Who'd you end up having? It's funny, one of my friends and I had the same interviewers (different days) and I thought they were fantastic, she felt berated the whole time... I wonder if it just ends up depending on what kind of day they're having...
Oh it wasn't that bad - I definitely wouldn't say I felt berated! Just grilled a little more than a lot of people seemed to be - no "fluff" questions about sports or movies! I didn't feel super comfortable walking out of the interview - but I guess it worked out!
So for those of you who already had your interviews at UPenn...
what kind of photo did you bring to your interview??
I keep stressing that I will forget to bring a pic at all...and actually I totally forgot I would need one until today!! (my interview is this Friday)
Did you take a picture just for this purpose? did you use something you had? ugh. its so silly to stress about but I'm already kinda of stressing about this interview. I feel like years in the lab has ablated my social skills.!
