Dealing with heartbreak...A thread for those Rejected by HYP. Perspective?

<p>I’m glad to hear you’re doing better. Penn is an excellent institution! Basically when students apply to ivies and other top schools, they are placing a ticket in the lottery, some have a few more tickets and some only have 1, but it’s all a crapshoot. So being rejected from a top institution is nothing to be ashamed of, as you got in to many others. So be proud and work hard to get that paycheck! Good luck.</p>
