LOCI: wait until you have something to say. They obviously know everybody on the WL or held would love to get in and not sending in a LOCI won't be interpreted as lack of interest.
Apologies, I was unclear -- from my view, LSAC is telling me that Harvard has been assigned the maximum number of LOR (3), so I don't currently see a way of sending an additional one through LSAC. No worries if you don't know anything about this, though, as I imagine the technical aspects of apps/additional info change slightly every year.

Re: LOCI: good to know.

Thank you again! Incidentally, I'm in the middle of a Tarantino marathon. Kill Bill is weird for me because I watched Part II before I knew Part I was even a movie (I don't know how that happened).
Yeah my info is from 2010 so things could have changed.

I was watching the Crazy 88 scene yesterday! What a movie :>
So great. Just before that, Lucy Liu's icy rant about questioning her ethnicity is my absolute favourite.

yes. my college pre-law advisor once said that for any supplementary statement, never go beyond one page. otherwise, the adcomm will hate you.

Too kind sir. Not sure whether the multiple LSATs or late LSAT update hurt me. Either way, I hope you get your JS2 and I my JS1 (and then JS2) out of this hold pile.

I honestly believe it's just the late LSAT update. They know they have to re-evaluate your entire application in the context of this recent development. So maybe they just decided to let you know they were pushing you further down the list to give themselves enough time to do so.

I'm sure if they were willing to interview me, you'll get yours eventually.

Just hope Lavitz comes out with a JS2...that's all. My fault, not as clear as it could've been.

Thanks. Now that Columbia is onto real admissions talk, can this become the video game thread? After all, we have three more months.

I might allow it. You have to file the proper permit first, of course. And you have to admit that Call of Duty is better than Halo.
