at least for you, there is an explanation for making you wait. Perhaps you are a finalist and they want to send your acceptance and plane ticket all at once :). For me, they are just shaking their heads in dissapointment
here's to wishful thinking! after all this snow i'm so ready to spring for the west coast. hopefully they'll send us all some love very, very soon.

I don't recall, but do they update mailings when they send something out or does it just go from DF to something in your mailbox?

the 11/22s seem like a really competitive group... USC didn't seem to YP that much last year looking at LSN
So I WAS an IR 11/22 (167, 3.77), but now I'm an In Review 2/7. It changed!!! And not to DF. I'm worried. What the heck?

Anyone else in a similar boat (i.e. went from IR 11/22 to 2/7 today with similar or better stats)? ... Grueling.

Thanks! There's a possibility that they haven't gotten to your app today and will get to it soon. In my case, however, there was movement today... and it wasn't a DF. Ugh. I saw another poster on p.60 who had, I think, a 168 and went from IR 11/22 to 2/7 today. I hope there's no reason to feel as nervous as I do. Thanks!

So I went ahead and spent the last 2 hours reading last years USC thread (your welcome). Everyone who went DF like we have, got in, although I only read to Feb 22, so things could obviously go completely different this year, and possibly changed after that date last year. However, last year the first people to state that they were WL, got informed this through their status checkers on 2/22. Up until that point everyone else who went DF WAS ACCEPTED, and there was no other movement!

Here is the link to when I think you should start reading: http://www.top-law-schools.com/forums/v ... start=1125

Here is the link that will get you to the point where apps began being WL, and where I stopped reading: http://www.top-law-schools.com/forums/v ... start=1475

Someone else let us know what happens after the 22, if you are bored.

P.S. Also, someone please tell me they think 2/7 people are IN!!!!!!!!!!!! sorry.

But have any of those people been rejected by snail mail after going DF? I thought they all received emails. So if you go DF, and don't get an email, that would be good news. No?

And if so, did you get notification by immediate email, or snail mail?

Says here people that went DF 1/14 didn't get rejected until the 21st (by snail mail)... so looks like we're in for a week of stress.

Good solve. However, this 2/7 group seems to have slightly better numbers, besides me of course.
I think we should just believe those were the auto-dings/made a mistake on my application group.
