<p>Haha i know but much MUCH more uplifting in the end! So glad i fast forwarded to reading March after i read Dec. 1st on that thread XD</p>
<p>Yea, the December 1st posts were pretty depressing.
It’s quite funny how the 2010 QuestBridge finalists will probably look back on this thread just like how we are looking at the 2008 thread. I hope our posts will give them comfort instead of despair when we find out the results…</p>

<p>8 here! (4 from ranked, 4 pure RD) :)</p>
<p>I ranked 7, and I’m gonna RD all of those 7 + whatever else i feel like RDing. It’ll probably end up being 10-12 QB schools. Crayytown.</p>
<p>I just had my Penn interview!!!</p>
<p>It was amazing. Like, really awesome. The woman was young (and amazingly beautiful haha) and super, super nice. We talked for an hour at Starbucks. I was soo relaxed and had an amazing time. We spoke in French, we talked about how amazing Corsica is (I’m from there and she had gone there a few years ago with her husband). It felt like it lasted only 5 mins.</p>
<p>To contrast, I had a GWU interview this morning, which was great but I was still nervous, and it only lasted 30min.</p>
<p>I really want to go to Penn now :D</p>
<p>Wow, good job flyingllama! Wish you the best!</p>
<p>That’s great Flying!! Did you apply to Wharton?
I went for PPE in CAS!</p>
<p>i was never contaced for a UPENN interview??? Should I contact them???</p>
<p>from yesterday:
my guidance sent out my transcript and ssr in the same envelope.</p>
<h2>stanford has the transcript, but not the ssr. HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE?!!! </h2>
<p>i’ve given up on stanford. they simply MUST have the ssr and didn’t process it. whatevs.</p>
<p>@Paki: Same here…I dunno if i should be calling or not :/</p>
<p>@Code H: I’m in the same mind about UPenn. How could they not have everything when it was sent with the QB application?</p>
<p>glad i could be of some help :)</p>
<p>caltennis: i have a question about amherst. one of my friends visited and said the people there were so mean and rude. they didn’t talk to her and looked at her weird when she asked a question.</p>
<p>what can you tell me about the people there? (assuming you visited as well b/c i think you live in cali…)</p>
<p>sinceredesichick: what’s upenn like? and i don’t know if you know of this school, philadelphia university? they said i qualified for a merit scholarshipo already b/c of my sat/act scores. it was for about half of the total cost, but i would still need approximately 100 grand. is it a good school? (and i’m asking you b/c i think people who live near the schools know more about it than CB and college websites)</p>
<p>thanks! :)</p>
<p>Paki & Julia, i think it’s just a random selecting. i haven’t either. and they’re still missing the fee waiver and signature. anyone even know what that is?</p>
<p>I only ranked 1 QB partner school but does anyone know when we hear back from them on 12/1? Like is it in the morning or can it be anytime on that day?</p>
<p>thanks Ju_liaa and crystal91 !!</p>
<p>Ju_liaa and paki786: I think it’s random. I never contacted Penn for an interview, and they’re still missing my application signature (?) and the fee waiver is “pending”…</p>
<p>I think the calling happens during the afternoon-ish… but since they’re calling so many people…I guess it could happen whenever (do they call everyone who got matched?? because that’s like 200+ people)</p>
<p>"applicannot, same! i ranked yale 2nd…but if i get into yale, i’ll be bummed. it just doesn’t have the ‘it’-factor for me. "</p>
<p>I read this and died a little. This is not what Questbridge is for.</p>
<p>^I did, too. Why rank a school if you’ll merely be “bummed” if you get matched to that school?</p>
<p>^^I sort of understand about being bummed if I don’t get into my number one ranked college but I’ll only be bummed for about two seconds. Then I’ll be bawling and laughing, jumping up and down with happiness.</p>
<p>i’m so sad now…i haven’t been contacted for a penn interview and it was my FIRST choice…</p>
