Good luck, bro. I know I give you a hard time for hedging, but I hope you see that as a good thing. Friends, even strangers, should call people out on destructive behavior. And hedging gets you nowhere, fast. And I construe "hedging" very broadly.

Just be confident and focused, and take what it is you want. In this case: your t14 transfer acceptance. Btw, I think you're a lock at NU. Submit a great writing sample; but also talk about your work experience in your PS and how much it has shaped your approach to studying the law.

Great thread. I wish we had this for last year's transfer class.

t40 school, top 15% first semester when I applied and was accepted (now top 10%).

Georgetown EA - Deferred (withdrew)
Chicago EA - Accepted (attending)

In response to PM, indicating that this may create false hope -- my rank is misleading because I had all As and A-s. My school only releases rankings in 5% increments and has a high curve. Basically my school's system fucked me. Each of my professors indicated to me, as most will confirm here on TLS, that the difference between an A and an A- is largely arbitrary, and in many cases simply based on luck. This is also evidenced by my second semester grades, which were a different variation of As and A-s. I am sure that this was taken into consideration by the admissions committees. In any event, I hope that this encourages people to aim high, regardless of whether it creates false hope. Word.

just a suggestion.

Your posting suggests that you spend all your time on this board. I doubt you'll mind.

Your postings suggest that you think you are way better than you really are and you think Yale is drooling over your tiny pink top 10% at a t2. :)

Top 5%, ex-t30 (now a swan-diving t35 - by the way, if a school was #18 just three years ago, and its sinking rank is mostly due to its really awful career planning office, do you think transfers from there carry more weight than your regular #35-ish school?). So far I got into Georgetown, EA, and have now applied to Chicago, Columbia, and Harvard, whose write-on I did and about which I feel either delusionally or totally appropriately confident. I plan to apply to Stanford, NYU, Penn if I can ever think of something to say about their obnoxious supplementary essays, and Duke, my alma mater.

I think it would be better to wait for actual acceptances/denials to start updating the op. People add schools or might not post their results. I think posting actual results and updating then is a better idea.

IMHO, yes. I'm no expert and am applying myself and transferapps seems to make it look like a long shot, but hey, t20 and top 10% will get you pretty close...why not try?

t40, ~top 15% (I think based on small sample size... rank still not released).

Duke, UVA, W and L, W and M, Georgetown, GWU, Berkeley (not likely)

Personal reasons for getting to the Va/DC/NC area.

Anyone have any updates? I have status checkers at H, B, UChi, and gulc so far. Going to apply to YCN early next week. This cycle feels so much more exciting compared to 1L admissions.
