I submitted mine on Saturday and still haven't received an email from NYU either.minnesotasam wrote:Yeah, no dice. I take it that wasn't the case for you? LSAC says a report was requested, generated and sent, I just want to make sure that they're not waiting for anything on my end. I suppose I should probably contact them.
How would they not let a median LSAT and 75th GPA in, in the first place? That's just insanemirroroferised7 wrote:At this point, this is my NYU theory:
They're gunning for high LSATS, and are willing to tank their GPA median for it.
But come February, they are going to realize that more >75th LSATs aren't coming, and they are fucked if they can't get their GPA up. THEN they will let in someone like me, with a median LSAT, and a 75th GPA.
That's, my theory. LSN backs me up, as does the spreadsheet.
I realize that GPA is meaningless, but the geniuses at USNWR have made it a decent part of their infallible ranking system. So, I can still cling to this fragile hope.
that doesn't explain people like phillywc, either.edwardt1988 wrote:How would they not let a median LSAT and 75th GPA in, in the first place? That's just insanemirroroferised7 wrote:At this point, this is my NYU theory:

Because I'm the median they deserve, but not the median they need right now.edwardt1988 wrote:How would they not let a median LSAT and 75th GPA in, in the first place? That's just insanemirroroferised7 wrote:At this point, this is my NYU theory:

True. But philly is the exception, not the rule.scoobers wrote:that doesn't explain people like phillywc, either.edwardt1988 wrote:How would they not let a median LSAT and 75th GPA in, in the first place? That's just insanemirroroferised7 wrote:At this point, this is my NYU theory:

that seems longer than usual. I submitted at a similar time and got a confirmation email the next day. It might be worth a call if you haven't gotten anything by Friday.minnesotasam wrote:Submitted my applications last week and haven't received a confirmation email from NYU. Seeing they're the only one that hasn't sent me anything, I just wanted to see if anyone here had a similar experience.

No idea of your stats, but since you said you were surprised, I figured you might be a splitter? I was just referencing the fact that they really seem to be moving quick on top-level LSATs. I could be way off lolmirroroferised7 wrote:lawschool22 wrote:Congrats!

That's horrible! So sorry kris. :/ Hopefully you'll get good news for real soon.kris4842 wrote:PRANK!!! SO I did not get into NYU! Someone at my job thought it would be funny to place the call! FYI not a funny prank! Guess I am a total ass for not checking my status before I made such a claim. Now I am humiliated. SON OF A BITCH! I think I am going to be sick.

I am utterly horrified by this. Keep your head and spirits up: I know you will find a way of getting the education you need to keep progressing at your job. Best of luck!kris4842 wrote:PRANK!!!
