The Law School Admissions Council has informed me that you may be considering law school this year. I invite you to take a closer look at Harvard Law School and the unparalleled opportunities that are available here.
HLS is a dynamic, vibrant, and energetic place to study the law. HLS is home to the world's most intellectually interesting and diverse law faculty, leading an incredible array of courses, seminars, and reading groups, which cover every major substantive area of legal study. Our size is our greatest strength. For example, Harvard Law School offers over 430 courses and small reading groups (132 with enrollments of fewer than 25 students), 30+ clinical areas, and over 100 student organizations ranging from the Scales of Justice (our a cappella group) to journals like the Environmental Law Review. In addition, Harvard's focus on public service and international legal studies means that our students have an impact on many communities.
Admission to Harvard Law School is highly competitive, but each application receives individual consideration by our team of faculty members and admissions officers. We believe that a student body with a wide range of experiences, interests, and backgrounds helps to create the best teaching and learning environment imaginable. While this message in no way ensures your admission, we encourage you to apply. Every year, we end up admitting students who never thought they had a chance at getting into Harvard.
Please visit Harvard Law School online at http://www.law.harvard.edu to explore the extensive resources and opportunities available to J.D. students, or follow the links below for more information on specific topics that interest you.

I wanted to do it Monday too, just to get it out of the way and maybe even hear back a little sooner, but I didn't have a reliable internet connection today, and I wanted to see if we got any input, too.

I had the same thoughts about hearing back earlier if we interviewed earlier, but going back through previous years' threads, it looks like it's perfectly normal for people to be included in the first wave of acceptances the Monday before Thanksgiving even after having an interview as late as the previous Thursday. So if this cycle follows past trends, everyone interviewing this week and next should be eligible for the first wave of JS2s.
Currently debating rescheduling for next Tuesday, but if I don't, I'll be going earlier than you on Thursday. Maybe I'll be able to provide a quick update before you have yours. I don't know if it would help much, but it seems like we're not getting any feedback from today's JS1ers.

I would appreciate that, for sure. I talked with a friend at HLS today, and he pretty much confirmed that the past interviews were essentially Why Law / Why Harvard / Let's talk about your resume. Notwithstanding any changes due to the new, longer format, I'm prepared more or less for that.

I don't know if they've done these in the past, but they're probably just trying to get more people to apply so they can increase their selectivity. It may be a small factor in the ranking methodology, but since Stanford overtook Harvard, there's room for improvement in the rankings now.Kitkatt wrote:This.

When looking at last year's thread, did you notice if the first JS1ers having a high percentage of conversions to JS2s? It seems like almost everyone who has a JS1 right now has very high numbers-- almost like they are just trying to get the high probability people in first.

But the pessimist in me worries that the East Coast thing might be right too. Two NY/NJ posters above, I'm down the street from HLS. Sample size of 3, I know, but might be something... I read a lot of complaints in last year's thread about them not being explicit about which time zone their call is from, so maybe they're starting this year first in the same time zone to get off to a good start??

Re: Harvard c/o 2016 Applicants (2012-2013)
I'd have to re-examine them and check the numbers to be sure of course, but going by memory I think that's been the trend in all three of the previous cycles. The first batch of TS/JR/KB/JS1s appears to have an above average acceptance rate compared with the overall conversion rate for the cycle. Not that any of us should get overconfident: there are always people with early interviews who don't get pre-Thanksgiving acceptances. Sometimes they get in later in the cycle--making it difficult to keep track--but sometimes things don't end well for them.bernaldiaz wrote:When looking at last year's thread, did you notice if the first JS1ers having a high percentage of conversions to JS2s? It seems like almost everyone who has a JS1 right now has very high numbers-- almost like they are just trying to get the high probability people in first.
And when you talk about a "high percentage," keep in mind that the overall conversion rate has to decrease this cycle since they plan to interview approx. 200 more applicants while accepting the same number as previous cycles. Still, I believe being chosen for this batch is a relatively positive sign, and we can expect a better conversion rate than the 66% predicted for this cycle overall.
We were really just discussing the possibility that they sent out JS1 invites only to people in hurricane-affected areas on Wednesday--several days earlier than everyone else. I don't think that everyone included in both the first and second waves of JS1s is located on the East Coast, but then again, I don't know everyone's location so I could be wrong.pacifica wrote:But the pessimist in me worries that the East Coast thing might be right too.

Clarification e-mail from JS:
I am writing to apologize for a confusing email you received from HLS earlier this evening. The Admissions Office inadvertently emailed an updated version of a note from the Asian Pacific American Law Students Association (APALSA) that had gone out to students admitted to HLS last year, rather than sending you a message from APALSA encouraging you to apply to HLS this year.
As you can imagine, I am embarrassed by the mistake. That said, I want to take a minute to reiterate a few points in the email that I hope you do consider as you are applying to law schools. APALSA is a very active affinity group on campus and hosts fantastic events for students throughout the year. The opportunities the group affords its members—from professional to social to cultural—are truly wonderful.
So again, sorry for any confusion, and I wish you the best in your law school application process. I hope you will keep HLS in mind!
Sincerely,
Jessica Soban

I have no idea what they would think of it, though they do recommend an "external microphone" so they shouldn't be too surprised to see a headset. I don't think it would influence their decision unless you felt self-conscious wearing it and it negatively affected your performance.JedBartlett wrote:Quick question: Do you think it is okay if I have a headset with an attached mic during the interview?
