real
I might go to my backyard, walk around, and just reflect. Maybe go in my neighborhood and just think about life. I'd definitely message all my friends and mentors that supported me and thank them.
... you're like an old man
Knock off old man π
ur not the first person to tell me that π
nah jk
People tell me i act and look older than i am
its the opposite for me
because of my love of alcohol
like alcohol the ingredient right π
write a thank you letter for accepting you
nah lol
institutions don't deserve one
if they send me a customized letter
the AO
ill reply back
do they send customized ones?
thats nice
lowkey i feel like getting into wharton is such a big responsibility and idk if im ready for it
might actually be better to stay unburdened yk
thinking about it now
im full paid intl, is that a huge boost?
nothing you can do abt it now
ehhhh not really
well im not trying to do anything
im js thinking
hmm
interesting
getting in would be insane though
one of what like 300?
ED admits
or something
thats wild
theres def more than that
more
400 tops
lol
half the class is ED
650
is the wharton freshman size
im guessing like
325
Itd be crazy if i got into huntsman
we'll see
Which my essay was not good enough in the slightest but like that would be winning the lottery
the only problem is my sat score
ive got 1430 but id say my rec letters are great, i have perfect grades and ecs
like
i wouldnt say 1430 is a problem
I made a gluten free dessert so good that my teacher asked for the recipe so the lor better be good
background etc
i havent started any other suppsπ
i mean context
as in
fgli
city
location
school
etc etc
so many factors
full pay
oh yea 1430 could hurt as intl
I thought upenn was need blind
hell no
no
LOL
Mb not i didn't really check
I figured all the ivies would be need blind π
for upenn regardless
π
i mean he mentions specific things not just
does he like... know you well though
what is ur
thats great then
anti corruption polsci spike?
rank
4.0
I wonder if barron trump had his lor written by Donald
u can't
have ur parents
write it
oh
i mean
Damn
Maybe lol
its very hard in thailand
i didnt have time
i think i will get a 1590 on dec sat
okay
we'lll talk then
lol
nah jk
i mean its worth a try
doesnt hurt
im js saying like u need crazy stuff
to be competitive
so yah
i mean i helped start a campaign promoting anticorruption across 12k kids
made a system to streamline anomaly detection in the voting agency of thailand (50% quicker in validating cases)
and a few more featured on nat news
if money isnt an issue and you have reasons for liking the school why not
you have like
2 weeks
so i would start soon
if you do plan on applying
ummm
i mean
write whenever you feel like it
i try not to procrastinate and get it done
also
it's dependent on your writing ability
how well can you write
do you have a personal statement
If you plan to apply to like huntsman or smth then i def wouldn't
lowkey not really
wait you applied?
or you plan on applying
oh what
And also wouldnt you want your teachers to read over your supps?
i guess we agree to disagree
i didn't have my teachers
Oh we thought you were asking if you should apply at all lol
but i guess that's because i have a counselor
Neither did i ngl
I didnt have my counselor read mine over either
you cant execute a prompt well if you have nothing of quality to write about
bro
do you guys think upenn should be need aware or need blind?
LOL
</3
postpone what
postpone??
oh
i mean if u want
i mean
ur choice
i doubt
it matters
lol
j do
whatever
u want
tbh
go w the flow
im not writing
supps
tbh
like what i think they should be?
ya
obv need blind i want aid
i wish they were need aware but weren't money hungry π
All of us are getting in type shit
they have to be
like i feel like its not fair to judge my app the same as someonme who had money
πππ€²
theres a budget
fr
which is why need blind exists
i wouldnt say theyre money hungry
This is more unlikely than me getting into huntsman π
dang
yo
is this shade
u ready
to get in
tmrw
i actually have confidence
ur getting in
@ocean spindle
average penn server
lmk how it goes dude
good luck guys

How we feeling?
penn>cornell
frfr
i agre
i mean
not u
but me
wait dude
ur getting in
have confidence
lol
yo what if penn decided to take more seas less wharton
i mean
they definitely
do that right
idk
yes
But I think Wharton has a lot more applicants

SEAS is not #1 for STEM
exactly
full pay intl seas ed

alr lol
i should have eded to some uni in ny

lol
its cooked
LOL
there's a reason
it's so cooked
its like
MIT
level coooked
ngl
the decision is literally here
no point busting ur balls now
and the rich nepo kids with legacy π₯

close to impossible

325
seats
for grabs

wild

he did some stuff in the phillipines
with actual
diseases

he spent
like a ton of
hours
on it
bro
is it possible to be more scard

cooked
LOL
wdym

im seas they take 200 people in ed but idk how many apply but itll be lot less than wharton
today

XD
u need to have a super
unique
spike
and clear
i hope it goes well lol so far ivies have been rough
yeah
yea
no intl ivy acceptances so far in this server lmao
wtfff
thats cap
Need blinds dont give a fuck

check each ivy's poll and check role if theyre intl
i have seen some
Polls and #β¨-celebration-station
edge it
ngl
i agre

wharton

stern ed 2
i think i can get ivy
no jinx
i think yeah
do ED2
the environment
for INTL
Do babson
Its ok
stern is much better
do you know
why
all the nyu
channel
kids
got
rejected
or deferred
or wtvr
Stern and wharton is like the pretty top top
it was like a bloodbath
what r ur ecs
alr
anyways im non business non esg
Whats your sat
ok but i need to make a dox proof
its very simple
anyways we'll do it later when i make it
i shouldve ed'd π
I am doing RD to SEAS
Or M&T
But I am international needing a full ride so It's hard
Because I want to do engineering but Penn is stronger in business
so M&T woudl be the perfect mix
Itβs not actually Cornell thread just keeps discussing gambling with fake money
So theyβre inflating message count
Basically there is a thing in the server called bonks
You can get bonks from a mod or by begging a user who has them to gift you some
Bonks can be used to bonk other people or as of Cornell threadβs suggestion to gamble on decisions
1. fat doujiang β π¨ 2070 bonks
2. dg | penn β π¨ 1000 bonks
3. zhettsu β π¨ 977 bonks
4. emi | meow meow meow β π¨ 150 bonks
5. lambda | D1 Cornell, D2 CMU Simp β π¨ 131 bonks
6. Pan β π¨ 127 bonks
7. Dove | Maths @ UCI β π¨ 100 bonks
8. Ford | Pomona College '29 β π¨ 99 bonks
9. cloud | 17/23 | columbia defer β π¨ 97 bonks
10. ca1y β π¨ 57 bonks
@inland gale suddenly feels a deep need to thwack people...
Done
If you want more go identify people who have some
Theyβre likely in #1400589090465910817
Or they know of them in there
Bonked vort1752#0
tf
Where did yours go
@flint pilot can we have bonk accounts so I know where these kids are spending their bonks
Like ik we can check their current count
But how do I know a kid didnβt irresponsibly spend their bonks and thatβs why they have none now
See!
We need transaction logs
That could also work
Maybe
Idk I donβt do tech
Issue is would it recount rejoiners
Like what if you get 20, go broke, rage quit the server, and then rejoin
Do you get 20 again bc it thinks you have 0
Reactions max out at 5k iirc
I think it clears each click
So I dunno if that means weβd run the same issue
I put that in mod chat
But admidral is probably sleeping
Heβs old
i had only 1
what false accusations are these
one day before ed smh
Wait guys do i use penn id on the portal to upload financial aid documents or should i be uploading it directly im confused
wdym directly
Does Penn only accept visual arts supplement? Their supplement page only gives info about visual arts/architecture? makes no mention of other types of supplements like music or dance etc, but that wouldnβt make logical sense? Anyone have additional info on this?
how are we all feeling
scared
yes
scared
not sure if im ready to face the brutal reality
but i have a sliver of hope
Can anyone look at my community prompt essay
Like logs posted? If you can make a channel I can make logs (do we want to log modaction too?)
Wdym mod action
Like spawning bonks /giving them out
Aka keeping track of money printer
Sure
Itβs so scary
zlawg why is the a2c pfp cornell
sellout!!!!
fair
well problem everything in the world
is alr
defined and our worry wont change it
so
Even if Cornell didnβt bribe me theyβve also been participating a lot in the server
Theyβve been playing with bonks
Almost nobody here wanted to
yea cornell is active
i'm tech illiterate and i'm too locked in to be bonking </3
not that bad everyone at school is so supportive
but ima start tweaking nefore it come doit
out*
some girl said she was gonna buy me matcha if i got in π π
she's so nice
it's because i tutored her
I hardly know anyone in Wharton running lik 6 fig businesses in hs or had bank internships as a kid
glad to hear wharton is normal
It is very normal
unpopular opinion but cas kids are the most cracked
Iβd say generally the most impressive applicants on paper r the seas kids
deadass bro
oh i dunno any seas kids
Also cus CAS is the biggest pool so youβll see the most standout apps from here lol
what is seas
yea that makes sense
Engineering
engineering
LMAO
Wharton is defo not impossible to get into two ppl ik have gotten in were just regular students
i was gonna keep it a secret but it doesn't matter i guess
My friend didnβt even have anything business related
do u wanna keep it a secert?
pre sure im the only one in my school that eded penn
wdym
like ur gon tell them
u aint get in π
Also ngl
The Wharton clubs r harder to get into than the school
If u do get in and come here the agony of getting rejected and competing w other cracked kids amplifies
Some of the clubs have like multi round interviews (but they ac banned it recently so idk what theyβre doing now) and 3% acceptance rates soooo
This is lowkey stupid π
Yup
LOLL MY FRIEND TOO
Are y Asian intl
0.01% cuz I'm freaking rural with no ecs i can do besides fbla π
Wait not in a weird way but we have WAX Wharton Asia exchange
If u get in u can take a look
Dawg I went to like a rural suburb school and ik multiple ppl who went to Wharton w no business related stuff except deca ur fine
Why
Nah nah i mean getting into wharton sure but getting into any wharton clubs? Probs less chance than getting into the school itself π
Is anyone else applying
For sure lol
I think i mentioned that in my supp lol
Hahahaha
me too
does penn defer a lot of people?
WITG GRC WUCC r the 3 I can think off of the top of my head
Wait how competitive is this? π
Really hard to get into
donβt think so
club apps come much later right
I donβt think itβs too competitive compared to the other mainstream ones cus itβs more niche
Yes
okay great
yeah but theyβre insanely competitive
Some of these clubs r chopped asf they make y make slide decks and stuff
My sister goes to Penn
Wait really? YASSSS I COULD GET INTO AT LEAST 1 CLUB π
She got into none of the clubs she applied to I think
They basically require previous experience w doing business related stuff n
u got meee right if i get in
Helpppp I only know ppl in said clubs I fearβ¦Iβm not in these clubs
Oh this shit is SO competitive
LMAO
Itβs like the Wharton club analog for engineering kids
nah connections TRUST
Theres multiple tasks and im p sure the third is they throw some junk at u and tell u to build a functioning circuit board in a day
I need a japanese club or smth. That can't be that competitive π₯
We have anime club
Ya I have a friend in PER but sheβs M&T and super into tinkering and stuff
Naur bruh like japanese culture and language. I'm proud to say I'm not a weeb π
Lemme take a look idk if they race other schools
We have JSA
But like itβs a club for actual Japanese students
Almost 5 hours π
The cultural affinity clubs r pretty much all made up of actual students who r Japanese/korean but Chinese student assoc is the one who lowk adopts everyone so its the biggest
we all delusional
Wait yeah PER races
Yay i could join then
I canβt tell if I really have a chance
Hahaha I know someone in it they seem chill
KSA is cliquey
I have at least 2 clubs i think i could join so I'm set. Not that I'll get accepted but sure
Which
PER is pretty cool tbh they throw parties
Lmao if it helps I can send u pics of the food
Jsa and wax are lowkey my best shot. Maybe csa but I'm not that Chinese π
Ummm
Bahahaha jsa will not be selective bruh
Cultural clubs cannot reject ppl πππ
Thatβs js so mean
Unless u mean applying to leadership
Stats so below average but I think have cracked rec letters honors and my essay is pretty good and decently good ecs
EXACTLY which is what i need lmao cuz aint no way I'm getting into a conpetitive club
I donβt think PER has any positions that a Wharton student can fill
Usually most big clubs will have like a management team or consulting team
But it looks like theirs is more techy
Bro my mom is from freaking hong kong and shes more british than anything. Imagine what american me must be like 
@oblique wren it rlly is that deep
Administrative bloat is BAD in some clubs
(The newspaper)
U could try for operations ig
I really wanna join jsa lowkey. Half of their events are food related π
does sibling legacy matter for upenn
Idk the fact that they build a car and then stick one of their fellow students in it to drive is funny
LMFAOOOA thatβs all the affinity groups
I think yes cus anecdotally all my friends siblings have gotten in
Or their siblings went
Lmaooo u think they run this like f1
hmm. but there wasn't an option to say that in the common app lol
like that your sibling went
ughh i wanna do figure skating at penn
ig it only applies for parents/gparents
Ya I think itβs less sibling legacy more so sibling helping u navigate the app
I feel like that's more correlation with having similar access to ecs and stuff
OOOH yea yes the ppl there r so nice
ah ok
U get to do showcases and stuff
BROOO I RLLY WANNA DOO IT
Ya thus
ππππ
honestly Iβm not even in many clubs cus idc abt club culture but some of these clubs r pretty cool
Lmaooo thereβs a lot of these but I always get scared off cus theyβre really good
Like I feel like u need some sort of experience to join regardless of what they say
ieeiuruhdj imma let u into wufc dw
Omg ur in wufc ππ
Ummm
Does witg count? Idk
ppl say witg is but witg is stupid
Witg lashings
WAIT IK SOMEONE IN WUFC
DO YK RICHARD CHEN
Very
Wait I had no idea so many of my friends were in wufc wtf
no who that
Nvm
Hi pennsters
hi
Hi
Are we ready
π
wtf
Huh
who is Richard Chen
theyβre rare afaik
did they restrict access to the portal prior to status update last year as well
yes
so do i just open that tab and refresh
yea im doing it with some people
do i shower or does that wash away the good luck
showering is for betas
i should shower since im not applying to seas or wharton
there is still snow on penns campus
crazy correlation
