Current Status: Evaluation in Progress
Changed since I checked on Tuesday.
When did you go complete/how long were you awaiting eval?
Complete on October 29. Previous year decision date graphs make me think not much will happen for anyone until the end of January.

TBF, I knew this guy personally and I can tell you this: he flat out wasn't cutting it in law school. While he tried to play it off as a purely financial decision, he was getting absolutely reamed by several professors in class discussions because he didn't know the material very well. It was to the point where most of the section genuinely felt sorry for the guy after the classes in which he spoke. I'm pretty sure he bombed our graded contracts midterm (that was the word among the students in our section), and he dropped right afterwards. I like the dude, but his statement that "I'm doing fine academically" was not even close to the truth. With that said, 1L's should still take these types of articles into consideration when deciding whether to attend law school. Bitter truth: It's tough out there, and not everyone is getting what they bargained for. I just don't want anyone to think that he represents our class as a whole.
Actually, I stand corrected. He just PM'ed me and provided proof that he did not bomb the midterm. However, my account of the beating that he took in class was accurate.
I stand corrected as well. The rumors flying around King Hall gave me a completely distorted view of the student's situation. My apologies!

He still was going to a school w/ regional job prospects when he didn't want to practice in said region.

Why is this even a discussion? I mean, it's common knowledge, if you're not in the top, what, 5, that you're at a regional-ish school.

As an update to my previous message on the 11th, today's check of the status checker yielded a new result! My decision has been mailed. Now to wait for it to travel across the country to VA.

When did you go complete? What are your stats?

Status change today to "Decision in the mail" or something like that. Anxiously awaiting the result...

How long is it taking for people to go from "awaiting evaluation" to "in review" or "decision made"?

I'm still "Awaiting Evaluation" as well, which is really frustrating because I applied in early October. Can anyone shed some light on how long they were in the "Awaiting Evaluation" stage?

I'm starting to lose hope for Davis...

Judging from a quick scan of LSN/this thread, not too many people have been accepted just yet. and it looks like last year a lot of decisions were handed out rather late. so i think it's going to be a while...

Yes they are moving rather slowly on our apps. Mine went out Oct 8th and I am still awaiting evaluation. God knows how much longer this is going to take.

"Evaluation in Progress" as of today with a 3.7 167... Anyone else have/had this as their status? I'm almost positive that when I checked it at 7EST Friday that it was that other waiting shizzzz.

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

Now there's a charge.
