YUP, don't you feel guilty turning down WUSTL though? I feel bad about it, its an awesome school which many would kill to get into. And it isn't like your absolutely effed when it comes to getting a job either, you still have a shot to get into Big Law. Great regional prospects as well... Sigh well the t14's, well I should say t6's power to destroy WUSTL yield shouldn't be taken lightly.
I'm at T14, not T6. But regardless, yeah, I mean, I feel bad in some regards. But I don't have any regrets really either.

USD, Temple, U of D. and Chapman. 2/3 Lewis and Clarke. 2/3 U of P.
STILL waiting for an offer from USC.

This whole process is so humbling. :( .

Considering how competitive Dozo is, that's probably wise. I'm pretty hard working, but I would've been worried about retaining my scholarship there. Better off going to another school with more lenient stipulations, or just attend a higher ranked school.

Will walk away from full-ride at local T3 that actually has a stronghold on local flyover-country market and a 3/4-ride from an out-of-state T3 that certainly does not.

Instead, I'm looking at sticker at top-40 and crossing my fingers for the next three years (yes, this will make note-taking and exam-typing very difficult).

I'd be tempted to take OSU if it didn't have outlandish stipulations and you want to work in the Midwest.
