OK guys, this one is the real deal Please don't post any useless crap in this one, the other one is reserved for that!

I though I would post one remark before I give the format, GOOD LUCK EVERYONE!!!! I know how much you guys love Penn, and how much the deferred ED'ers especially love it (myself included!), and thus I really do wish you all the absolute best of luck. This community will forever be with me

BTW, here is a nice little video bernardolw sent me to post in this thread, hope you guys enjoy it http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ASisLT5XHtg

Good luck RDers. If not Penn, some college will realize how cool you are and accept you.
