Alright well since your neighbors did that, okay lol.
The truth is that Penn and Wharton are constantly improving.

Lots of kids turning down Penn this year just from what I've seen, looks like they'll have to go somewhat deep in the waitlist this year
Absolute nonsense. Penn is consistently ranked among dream schools for high school kids. Penn is a smart choice.
Doesn't change the fact that lots of kids are turning it down this year. No one is saying Penn is bad, just an observation about where kids are choosing
You admit of course your observations are based on little data...and at the HS one town over for some reason "lots" of kids are turning down Duke.
BTW, schools accept more kids then they have slots based on expected yield. It is unusual to ever go deep into the waitlist at a Top 10 school, even in what one could consider a low-yield year.
By deep I mean ~200+ off the waitlist

Same with Yale, it wasn't on the dream list for students but was in the top 10 dream schools for parents right behind Duke
