UR since 11/22. No e-mail yet. Hope we get something this week

UR since 12/3...not really expecting an acceptance, but being UR this long without hearing anythinggg is still a little frustrating. sigh. good luck, everyone!

Yeah . Very happy to have survived the first round of dings but it's looking more and more likely that a hold is going to be my best-case scenario at this point.

Yeah I'm a 11/17. Very happy to have survived the first round of dings but it's looking more and more likely that a hold is going to be my best-case scenario at this point.

Not applying to Harvard,

Found a few twenties in an old jacket and decided to spend it on a dream, My cycle will never end.

[7ED]

Been under review since September. my numbers are on the low side, so I guess i'm relieved I havn't joined the Dingbar.

But still, I think I can speak for all of us hopefuls that some news would be nice =/

[Confused7]

Do they ding people based on completion/UR dates? I feel like every email is going to give me a heart attack from now until the end of the cycle. It'd really be nice to know just WHEN to expect some news. :/

Remember when we thought every email was gonna be a JR1? Now its the complete opposite.

That's a morbid but yet probably 100% correct way of looking at it.

[playdough]

Anyone have a sense of what percentage of the class has probably been admitted already? Out of 800, I am thinking maybe around 400.

[muppet263]

Hey folks,

Just wanted to let you know they're sending out 'hold' emails now as well. Just got mine and, after a complete heart attack, realized that's what it was.

(UR 10/6)

[ehwilliams2]

Just got Held. UR 10/8

[duckmoney]

Just got put on Hold as well, UR 10/6. Anyone have experience with hold? What is the likelihood of getting in after being put there?

[wonkymonkey]

In the hold pile as well.

[r6_philly]

Hold email, I am going to call that a win for now. Time to start the LOCI.

When did you go complete/UR, philly? We have the same stats and a hold is the best I can hope for for now too.

[bkhopeful]

held via email. UR 10/18. are y'all sending more materials? does it make sense to send additional recs if i already sent 2 academic and 1 professional? anyone have data on chances of getting in once held?

[shanemahsa]

Holy crap! Held!!! I'm stoked lol.

[cardinals1989]

This does not bode well for Club 170 .

No email yet for anything on me. Do they send it out as one mass email, or should I be expecting mine soon?

[prt86a]

Any holds with a November UR date?

10/12. I just updated my grad school transcript too (I don't think they received it yet). I will try to get a LOR out one of the new professors. I wonder which one is a Harvard grad?

My LSAT didn't even make the 25% so not getting dinged is definitely a win. I am kind of happy about this since it was a straight ding last year.

[Confused7]

Thanks for the info, philly. So far it does seem like it's going by completion date. I'm UR 11/17 and nothing yet.

[r6_philly]

I am sending new LOR because all my LORs are from UG and my grad school is a lot better than my UG. I don't know if additional LOR from UG is going to help much.

I am going to dig through last year's data, but I do remember a few people getting in after being held. I am just really hoping that this year's pool is much weaker than last and they are just being cautious.

[jd2014!]

Held as well... where applications go to die. Already prepping my LOCI.

Edit: UR 10/6, so I suppose it could have been worse.

[ilovemulch]

HOLY MOLY, held as well! I am in complete shock - I'm definitely an auto-ding with my #s alone (~ @ both 25ths and non-URM). Think it could possibly be legacy status? I'd be interested in knowing stats on likelihood of getting in afte rbeing held - is this basically a straight path to the WL/Ding?

[lawpuppy]

A great deal of holds in the last few days. Has anyone received a JR2 in this period? And has anyone who received a JR1 been held in the newest batch?
