haha I am happy with my decision to go with Boalt, although there will always be a part of me wondering if I would have gotten in to Harvard, to be honest. But yeah... I knew that if by some miracle I did get in next week I would only have a few days to decide, which is a *lot* of pressure. I would have wanted to visit the school and I can't do that since I'm in Europe. So basically, I would be giving up Boalt (a school I visited, have friends at, and overall really liked) for Harvard (a huge school, far away from home, with no one I know). Don't get me wrong, it would have been totally worth it in terms of career and prestige, but... law school is going to suck either way, so I figure I might as well do it at a place that I feel comfortable. And it's not like I'm picking between Harvard and Thomas Jefferson School of Law.

Also, there is the tiny little point that I may have never gotten in at all.

But seriously... GOOD LUCK people.

There will be a day when a deluge of Harvard acceptances takes over this forum and everyone will rejoice.

Just not today. Or Monday.

Also StrictlyBusiness, have they acknowledged the fact that today is your WL deadline? Or have you not heard from them yet?

Screw it, if they P you off too much there is always NOVUS.

Is this... real?

Yeah it was meant as a smart ass joke. There are some legit online CBE law schools (if you want to be stuck in Cali for life) but Novus is not one of them. I am impressed by the research and pastes, can't say I'd care enough to do the same.

Someone needs to post that subserviant chicken link over here from the grade waiting thread so you guys can waste time too. Waiting sucks. Sorry if I made you guys think about it too hard.

Soooo, another day is upon us. Except over in Cambridge, it is a holiday, and it is tooo much to ask that the Harvard Admissions Offices be working through a holiday :p

lol I think u were asking too much.. from the inactivity since u all got wait-listed i doubt they are even working on weekdays.

I called this morning to see if I could get an optimistic answer to keep me on the WL for the rest of this week, but what I got was almost the opposite.

I'm sure this was the generic response, but the woman I talked to just said there hasn't been any movement yet and we don't know yet IF or when there will be.

So anyway, just withdrew, it was a good run everybody and I hope you all get a KB1 soon. Just maybe not today or tomorrow.

I really wouldn't look at this as anything more than a standard generic response....

Guess we should all withdraw... immediately.

why? The time passes the same if you do or don't. Do you get a refund for your application fee if you withdraw? If not, anyone who does without it being for the reason of attending another school that starts that day (and I promise most don't until fall) is an idiot.

B. The crazy admissions cycle, complete with application level drop and late admissions, has H a few weeks late putting together its perennial, relatively big WL->Admit wave.
