Same. I imagine there will be a wave of new URs on Monday or Tuesday now that this batch is out.

No decision. Not that I'm sour-grapesing or anything, it's just that I've never been to Chicago and only have what I hear on NPR to go off. Are people liable to get shot in Hyde Park?

Ironically they gave un-promised decisions, but not the pseudo-promised twitter update. Anyhow, I have nothing to complain about, but think about all the poor, isolated, TLSless masses!

Waitlisted, no interview. I'm not all that surprised. If anything, I'm happy I wasn't dinged.

In via email.

Interview invitation late Jan.
Interview mid-Feb.

Contrary to what some people have been saying, I actually loved my interview. I thought my interviewer was personable and engaging. Overall, I thought it was a great conversation, and it felt like both didn't want it to end.

PM for details.

Several people on here confessed to loving their interview(er) as well earlier today.

I thought mine was great too.

Well some people who had Dean Perry didn't seem to enjoy the experience too much.

As for people who had... the other person... well... :oops:

I mean, if you act stupidly enough, you're liable to get shot anywhere in Chicago. But generally Hyde Park is fine. Source: I'm from Chicago.

Waitlisted yesterday. Weird thing is I withdrew my app three weeks ago and their office confirmed. Is this common? It feels like they're trying to manipulate their acceptance rate...

Waitlisted yesterday. Surprised because I expected a ding. Under 25% GPA and at median LSAT.

you might want to re-confirm your withdrawal - you don't run into any problems in the spring

I think the self reporting nature has made the spreadsheet a rather biased sample, we only see acceptances and few WL there. (probably people who were dinged just stopped checking the thread)

But it would be useful to find out % who interviewed was rejected...

Yeah I'm sure even WLs are underreported because there were people ITT who reported WL after interview yesterday but there are none on the spreadsheet.

It's still kind of useful if you judge the amount of people who answered 'accepted' vs. the original 'invited to interview' spreadsheet.

Sry I was refering to much earlier comments. Ppl had said they felt the interviewer was bored and gave one word answers to their questions.

I applied late(1/15) and haven't heard anything, though my application is complete. Did those who were rejected get an email? Or just see it on status checker? Mine in probably coming today:(

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

Now there's a charge.
Just kidding ... it's still FREE!
