Email me your excel file and I'll take a look at making it two colors if you want. The basic gist is you want a column for each color.
hmmm....I didn't save it lol it was very unsophisticated. But not many people have entered in rejections yet, I might just mess around with it until more people enter in stats.

Is the going complete process being delayed? The excel chart on the first page said 11 days is average but it seems to be taking longer.

I think it takes less time if you submitted earlier in the fall.

Yes I did mean JS2..I believe that tomorrow is the day they are sending out most JS2s. This is because I received mine in the form of email (no phone call) due to the fact that I conducted my skype interview while I was in the UK meaning an international call would be necessary. I got the email around 5 and I think I would have received the call and email tomorrow had a call not be impractical. Anyway....my stats are 177/3.94 JS1 on Dec 14

Well I'll be damned. Maybe they will be coming out soon. Although I'm nowhere near your stats so I can't glean anything from that lol :D

They seem to start around 2-3pm EST and can go on for a few hours after that. I think the earliest we have seen this cycle was around noon, and I believe we have seen people get calls until 6-6:30pm.

That's all going by memory, so if someone knows of anything earlier or later let me know.

Has anyone been admitted who had their JS1 in late December/January (except that international guy)? I thought we were all waiting on a JS2 wave here

We are waiting on JS2 wave; maybe I misunderstood you. I thought you were implying that no one on TLS had been admitted so far in the cycle. But now I think you must have meant just in the upcoming wave.

By the way everyone, you know the wait is getting to your head when you dream that you sat down for a practice LSAT test, months after studying and sitting for the real deal, score two points higher than your actual score, and then spend the rest of the dream trying to decide if you should go wing it in February.

So who will be the first person you tell after you get your JS2?

lol also how many people will post a FB status about it? I think its fair game as long as its not douchy with a picture / instagram shot of your acceptance letter :P
I would definitely take a pic of the acceptance letter and send it to my mom, though she can't read English. :wink:

Not that you'll actually get any, but you could also take a picture of any rejection letters and send them to her too. Then just tell her you decided to go somewhere else.
