<p>I wouldn’t mind doing it. I know I will be home on Friday cause I have to take the ACT the following morning (no late night raves for me…). I know my way around the html that goes into making the posts look fancy as well. If I did have the honor of making the thread, I would probably post it at literally 4:58. 2 mins to make sure I did everything right, and 2 mins before 5 so that the thread doesn’t fill up with non-decision posts.</p>
<p>After Empaige posted, I started to wonder what is the difference between boss and baws? For those like me who are interested:</p>
<p>According to Urban Dictionary.com;</p>
<p>BAWS: (1)African American mispronunciation of the noun “boss.”</p>
<p>EX: And I looked at the kid and he shook his head and said, “No, you gay ■■■■■, you aINT’ NO BAWS!!!” He threw a piece of cheese at me and ran off.</p>
<p>(2) Scottish slang. stems from english slang “bollocks” meaning testicles. Can also be used as a statement of disbelief.</p>
<p>Example not required.</p>
<p>BOSS: Incrediably Awesome; miraculous; great</p>
<p>EX: Dude, did you see that chick? She’s ****in’ Boss!</p>
<p>dfree124, can you do it at like 4 PM Friday? Or is that not possible?
You’re awesome.</p>
<p>Woops, just saw your response.
You’re actually so cool.</p>
<p>Thanks a lot dfree. And that’s a pretty good idea, aangel with posting decisions on this thread.</p>
<p>The decision threads are so helpful. I remember trying to (still try) find a pattern to each person’s acceptance, deferral, or rejection. I hope it helps future students.</p>
<p>Guys can you please tell me how you’re killing the time? I just made the incredibly huge mistake of reading the 2015 results thread for the first time (i REALLY tried to stay off it because I knew it would freak me out) and now I’m legit scared. I don’t know what to do. Things work out for the best right? But if we’re all so sure Penn’s the best… ah omg I feel so depressed and anxious now</p>
<p>Okay basically I just want to know how to get through the next 3 days
thanks</p>
<p>btw @dfree: that sounds awesome! Are you a future Penn ED applicant?</p>
<p>Yea, I can pretty much make it whenever, as long as nothing comes up. I would think 4-4:30 would be a good time to do so. If I don’t post anything by like 4:45 feel free to make one yourselves.</p>
<p>Man, I don’t know about you guys, but Urban Dictionary.com is so informative and funny. </p>
<p>If you guys are easily disgusted or grossed out, don’t read the following. But those who do read it, tell me this is not funny.</p>
<p>Turd Burglar:
(N) When you’re forced to take a dump in a public restroom and you’re just about to drop the bomb, when someone comes into the bathroom and tries to open the stall you’re in! This cases the log coming out your ass to suck back in and your meaty dump to be interrupted.</p>
<p>I admit this is gross, but it hilarious.</p>
<p>@aangel, I plan on looking up stuff on Urbandictionary.com, youtube.com, do other college applications. Looking up other colleges does relieve the stress.</p>
<p>I love Urban dictionary. Much more resourceful than dictionary.com or a real dictionary!</p>
<p>Hahahahhahah. Agreed, gross and funny.</p>
<p>LOL. I just went onto Johns Hopkins’ CC page since I’m writing an app for it to pass the time, and their ED thread only has like 94 replies!</p>
<p>thanks free2rhyme! I think I’ll try thatt :)</p>
<p>LOL I lovee urbandictionary - that was classic. Look up your names, it’s almost always hilarious</p>
<p>the bigger question I have though is HOW did you even think to search for turd burglar on that site? LOL weren’t you the one who called everyone else a perv? haha</p>
<p>If you guys had to choose one word to describe yourself, what would it be?</p>
<p>For me, I would say its naive.</p>
<p>Last year, a group of people in my class was talking and laughing in a group. I heard “dtf”. I asked them what it meant; they just continued to laugh at me. Later when I put the question on someone’s wall, he started to freak out because he didn’t want that on his wall.
I actually believed in the tooth fairy till the eighth grade. I am serious. There are so many instances of my naivety.</p>
<p>
Given that there are over 4,500 ED applicants, I wouldn’t make too many generalizations based on those who happen to post on CC.</p>
<p>Usually, there are about 5-6,000 or so Wharton applicants overall (ED + RD), and last year there were 31,663 total applicants to Penn (again, ED + RD). So, assuming that the same proportions apply for ED applicants, about 15-20% of ED applications (or around 600-900) are for Wharton. Those are VERY rough numbers.</p>
<p>The 26% ED acceptance rate is the overall rate for all 4 schools, so the rates for each of the individual schools will vary around that number. Generally, Wharton’s acceptance rate is lower than the overall rate, the College’s rate is about the same as the overall rate, and the acceptance rates of SEAS and Nursing are a bit higher than the overall acceptance rate.</p>
<p>Does that help to clear up any of the confusion? :)</p>
<p>well i didn’t know what dtf meant until google told me. Thanks google!</p>
<p>@aangel, I wasn’t sure what I was originally searching for. I think I was looking for “idgi” or “s-t-f-u”, and then I remembered my pre-Algebra teacher would always call his students “turds”. I had an idea of what a turd was, but I was curious of the urban dictionary definition. So I searched “turd” and found “turd burglur” below it.</p>
<p>This was a logical train of thought. If I was actually voluntarily looking for turd burglar, then I would be gross not a perv. You guys were being pervs.</p>
<p>LOL free2rhyme: I just googled dtf cuz i didn’t know what that meant either…umm doomed to fail? jkjk…it’s the other meaning…the one i can’t type on here but you know
i guess i’m pretty naive and gullible than most people too because i applied to penn</p>
<p>@aangel, you have me on the list twice</p>
<p>I don’t think I’m on the list. I’m applying to SEAS.</p>
<p>Oh, Urban Dictionary, how you corrupt minds everywhere.</p>
<p>I’m not on that list either. I’m applying to SEAS.</p>
