Obvious trolling is obvious, but...EMZE wrote: Me. I do this.
People live or die by LSN around these parts of town. You can make up for every T14 denial with 14 tier 2 acceptances. I have no intention of going to law school. But I am hoping to at least show my LSN during my next job interview. I've been applying to law schools every year since 1998. Yales gonna bite eventually.
Way more subtle/successful trolling (taking obvious troll is obvious seriously), if this was actually trolling. But its probably not.msblaw89 wrote:
I guess I don't understand the point of a LSN profile.. and why applying to more schools is a big deal? Do law schools scope out the profile or something? I guess... what is the advantages of having a LSN profile with lots of "accepts" other than to intimidate/show off to other LSN stalkers?
Anyway, how true is it that UVA WLs so many people because they aren't writing "why UVAs"? I always figured it was because they filled up a bigger proportion of their class with ED applicants so RDs, even with great numbers, got wait listed (compared to MP). I visited there and really loved it, but don't want to be stuck with applying ED (and almost certainly getting in) vs RD and having no shot.

Re: If you are over a school's 75th...
I'll clarify so there's no confusion as to my intent.
I was joking, hoping it was obvious enough that no one would take me serious, and mostly blowing off steam here instead of on my status checkers. Copecetic?

Re: If you are over a school's 75th...
I've never understood the obsession with Why X's. I put thought and research into them, but for the schools that I didn't actually visit or talk to students from, the whole process took no more than a couple hours, and one of them took 15 minutes. I don't see why this gets schools to think you're serious about attending when all it's really showing is that you're being responsible about not half-assing your appswestinghouse60 wrote:Obvious trolling is obvious, but...EMZE wrote: Me.
