Also, for stats: 3.89 GPA 169 LSAT from top 10 University: thoughts on chances for admission?

1) Send LOCI.
2) Visit a few times, and try to speak with admissions people.
3) Retake LSAT in June, and manage to stay on WL until I get my (much-improved) score.
4) Get accepted.

I'm considering retaking too (don't tell my husband- he will FLIP OUT). Good plan!

EDIT: your LSAT score is awesome, btw. it was the one I was hoping for the first time around

Good to know I'm not alone. Looking at LSN it looks like they just hold out some soft LSAT splitters and some slightly above both medians people until they randomly accept them through February and then scatter a few more in early March prior to WL'ing the rest...

Good luck to you!

I would like to be one of those soft LSAT splitters to hear in February...

Is this normal? CLS, SLS, HLS, and UVA already received it, days ago. The NYU admissions office said sending an additional LOR through LSDAS was preferred.

NYU only has LSAC send additional LORs on the 1st and 15th.

I'm in St. Croix and haven't been on in 36hrs. Just got back in from a long day of adventuring around the island and about to head to bed.

For anyone who is interested, my numbers are 3.7/171.
