I would be surprised if you weren't an auto-admit.
Definitely an auto-admit. There's no way three law profs read a file that fast. :D

Congrats!!!!!!

Man, I wouldn't care if Yale called me at 4am on a work-night and made me wait on hold for 2 hours.

lol'd at the bolded.

But yes, Asha admits certain applicants during her initial review of files and never sends them along to the faculty review because they're just that amazing (like the_pakalypse).

Congrats!!!! Anyone want to create a YLS 2017 thread?

I am kinda of reluctant to do so.... I think they probably only fill less than 1/5 of their seats.

And would that be pretentious to do so?

Dictionary definition of pretentious: "attempting to impress by affecting greater importance, talent, culture, etc., than is actually possessed."

You're going to Yale Law. Nothing is pretentious anymore :P.
