@goingfor99th said: @lsatplaylist said: Then you may be able to politely negotiate. How many offers have you received at this point? How many are contenders? Maybe also mention your enthusiasm for the 1L courses there and your inte…

@lsatplaylist Yeah I'd say so

@akistotle https://media.giphy.com/media/1136UBdSNn6Bu8/giphy.gif But srsly does anyone know anything about the getting-off-the-waitlist process or know anyone who went through this process in the past?
-
I'd say your friends are really wrong. Get the highest LSAT score you can and apply to your dream school directly. Don't aim to do any of this roundabout transfer stuff.
-
@lsatplaylist No sadly . I know 0 lawyers and none of my family members are lawyers lol.
-
Thanks @"Leah M B" @LSATisland Ya what questions were you asked? It's only 15 minutes so it's pretty short. I've been collecting a database of potential questions lol
-
Thanks all! @lsatplaylist It's via video-call. Idk what to make of it. I heard anecdotally that during the normal admissions process people who get interviews are very likely to be admitted - does anyone know of/have any data to support this? Als…

Seeing as how it's past the deposit deadline for many schools I would call to make sure they didn't lose your application lol
-
Since you want to clerk, I would take some time to look at the clerkship numbers for each school. There seems to be a good correlation between US News ranking and clerkship rate, so you may want to seriously consider reapplying if clerking is your g…

@"Seeking Perfection" I'm really happy with UChicago, but I wanna see some of these waitlists through
-
Congrats and I'll see you next year buddy
-
@"mickey.caleb" Haha thanks! They a "fast-track" transfer application for applicants offered a waitlist to apply after 1L...which is very interesting...

Waitlisted at Yale More purgatory
-
I'm gonna be selfish and say withdraw from the waitlist so my chances are higher
-
@goingfor99th I just need my denial already so I can begin the healing process
-
YALE PLEASE
-
@goingfor99th Can you ask her to let me in? Or just get back to me
-
The brand. From what I've heard from legally-affiliated professors, I think their quality of education is far below that of Chicago, Stanford, and Yale (time you get with your professors, student-to-student interactions, etc. - ESPECIALLY in 1L). I…

All T14. Prolly have a decent shot at Columbia.
-
@mcglz_64 Of rejections, waitlists, or acceptances? or all 3?
-
Has anybody heard from Yale recently?
-
@goingfor99th @LSAT_Wrecker @LSATcantwin Haha do you guys see this as a good thing? Idk the realisticness of getting off the waitlist..

Waitlisted at Stanford
-
@acsimon Oh I didn't realize that about NU's law campus lol, I just visited their undergrad a month ago. And yeah! I'm looking at staying in the Bubble of Hyde Park haha. North of campus is decently safe.
-
@"Seeking Perfection" Ya I'd agree. The area around UChicago has a relatively low cost of housing/living (but it's also a high crime area), but Northwestern is in Evanston which is soooooooooooooooooooooooooooo expensive.

@"Return On Inference" said: Two followup questions for ya'll. If I amended my title to read: "For those with T3 aspirations, is it 175+ or bust now?", would your answers change in any way? What if I amended the title to read: "For t…
-
@westcoastbestcoast Honestly this cycle feels a lot more holistic. I know a lot of people with far better numbers than me getting denied left and right. I kinda have imposter syndrome right now based on where I've gotten in compared to them. I reall…
-
I've toured a bunch of law schools and the most consistent advice I've gotten on "how to prep for 1L year" is: "Don't." Honestly just relax. Refresh your brain. Go travel - it may be the last chance you get to for a while. The past 22ish years of y…

It definitely isn't.

A decision letter has been sent from Stanford
