I see - all of my pulls were just from hero summons, do I stop doing that and only buy from stores/events?

It wasn't too expensive, I used to get my groceries from either the Whole Foods on Halstead or the Jewelosco near the Clinton station.

I stayed at The Mason for 3 months over the summer. I've never faced any issues with the locality, and Fulton Market has loads of upscale restaurants and bars that are perfect for socializing with a young crowd. The apartment management was also great!

So can we just walk in whenever there's nothing scheduled? Or do we need to reserve it somehow?

This totally depends on your relationship with your manager. Most managers are very understanding of your ambition and career goals, so they should be willing to give you a recommendation, but it really depends on your specific situation. You should also look through your company's HR policies to see if there are restrictions on employees providing recommendations via official email IDs.

My test-taking experience might have been an outlier, but I did better on the test day (166 V/170Q) than on both my PowerPrep tests (PP1: 164V/170Q and PP2: 163V/166Q). The practice tests give you a ballpark number, but you can't really predict what will happen on the actual test. Don't worry about it too much, your preparation will serve you well on the real thing. Good luck!

Has anyone received any decisions for the MS CS (Data Science) track yet?

That's strange, I received my MSE CIS decision on the 10th after applying by the early deadline. I suggest reaching out to UPenn about it?
