There is no way for me to answer with Texas on the poll.

Southwest

You should just put it as its own poll option. Like Alaska/Hawaii

I would have to delete other regions


Compromises had to be made

Eh maybe I could get rid of Canada

Eh, sorry Canada

there are a surprising amount of Canadians on this website

I imagine it 10000000% depends on your Undergrad school, too. A splitter from Princeton is much more acceptable than a splitter from Alabama. (I went to a top tier school that's notorious for grade deflation and my classmate got into UVA within a month of applying. I think she got her acceptance email 12 hours after her interview. GPA below 25th. LSAT above 75th.)

Did we go to the same school / know the same people? I know this to be familiar with a couple people. But generally, I noticed where I went to school that being over one median gave you leeway on the other, even for non-URMs, for top tier law schools.

As for apps, I'm hoping mid-late September if I don't need to take the September test. If I do, then I'll submit immediately after scores come in early October.

Ehh, I think your application also matters a ton (at least in T14) outside of numbers. I got in everywhere except HYS with a 168 last year.

Are you potentially a bit of an outlier? Can't remember what your GPA was, but would think that you being STEM has a positive impact

Yeah probably. I was 3.98 electrical engineering undergrad with a master's and work experience/research fellowship at MIT during summer in grad school, so I definitely had some boosts, but isn't that the point? Things outside of just numbers helping?

Pretty disappointed you made me pick Southeast instead of just The South

[dm1683]

Midwest represent! Plato, me and who else?

Should have had East Coast, West Coast, South, Southwest, and Real America Midwest.

Have scores come out yet? I don't think I can do 2 more weeks of this

I don't think your stats help this argument? 3.98 167 should get into schools h down. Except for c it looks like performed at your numbers.


Eta I don't disagree tho. When all applicants are excellent you need things to differentiate which is where we get softs

So many people from the South East... hello friends

[it's allgood]

So when is everyone planning on sending in apps?

If I don't get in off the wait list this cycle, then Sept 1!

[it's allgood]

Rosemary olive vodka?



I'm,.. I'm not sure



Those are all things I like

Just woke up with one million regrets. Drunk me made Key Lime Pie, donated too much of my money to charity, and adopted a rabbit.

Did you really adopt a rabbit? Will ya' post a pic????

[Ntp73821]

Haha, so I did tell the person I was going to take a rabbit, but then I woke up with about a million regrets because I have two dogs already and I was afraid they would hurt a rabbit. So I told them I didn't want a rabbit after all... it was kind of awkward but oh well. It was a really cute rabbit, though.

Edit:

Here is a picture of my dogs to make up for not having a picture of a rabbit:

Yes yes more pws

I'm originally from the Southeast. Does that count?

Stellar dogs!! They are super cute!! But I could see some potential conflict with those two and a rabbit......So it was probably a good call to back out!

Yes, I'll accept you

Thank you!!
The white one probably wouldn't hurt the bunny, but the brindle one has a pretty bad prey drive. But apparently you don't think of that when you're drinking and decide you want a bunny

This is great. Best thing to happen this week by far.

Last night was the first night post LSAT that I haven't had a dream about the LSAT!

I did have this tragic dream where I was trying to drink beer at a brewery but every time I went to take a sip, I dropped the pint glass and it shattered.

I almost wanted my horrible LSAT dreams back

That sounds like hell

WTF I got an email from LSAC saying that they had an incomplete certifying statement on my account and that I need to send in a new form that was attached to the email. I definitely filled that thing out.

[Mikey]

WTF

That sucks. I'm sure you'll be fine if you just send it in though.

I wonder what went wrong.. If they read each word that you write, maybe it's possible you forgot to copy a word or something, hence why it's "incomplete"? Who knows..

I'd be relieved that they at least got your answer sheet and shit didn't get lost or something
