My phone keeps vibrating on my desk so my heart stops every time, but it's just new Tinder matches and stuff. Ughhh

What does Miley think of this infidelity

Considering she's on tour in like Arizona right now, I'm gonna say oblivious Miley is the best Miley.

(But seriously Dean Deal, can you imagine how much a SLS acceptance will help my Tinder game? Do me a huge solid.)

i think so. i would expect that we are only going to see tiny waves until the faculty review process is complete. a lot of these folks are generally auto-admits

Sorry if it's a dumb question referenced a hundred times already ITT, but do we know generally when FR is completed?

Also likely a dumb question - but searched ITT a bit and couldn't find it - Stanford does FR?! Can someone point me to where that info is?

I feel like SLS might have the most holistic approach of any of the T14

that's funny, i've heard the opposite
my understanding was that stanford is the most numbers -- and specifically gpa -- oriented. then again i havent been rejected yet and i dont have the best numbers so maybe you're right

haha real life questions! it is a dating app. You create an account and then it puts pictures of people and their bios. You like them or skip them. If two people like each other it puts you in contact so you can talk or arrange a date

I'm starting to feel old. I found out about this like a week ago myself.

Harvard is certainly more numbers oriented. Take a look at the graphs from mylsn and see how the Harvard one has a clear curve separating the admits from the dings but stanford has a lot more overlap. The thing that people do say about stanford is that they have a pretty firm gpa "fooor" which I can't speak to.

I think one thing to note also is that SLS doesn't seem to care that much about their LSAT medians.

They rarely come later in the day, but I hope so.
