Application ready for review on 12/3.
Today:

Pretty sure this means that they looked at it already, but are not accepting me at this time. *shudder*

I'm at decision pending too but my numbers are 3.54, 172. Unless I really screwed something up on their application I wouldn't expect to be rejected, so who knows?

Re: William & Mary
That seems to be the consensus. Nobody on this board (so far) has had a move off of "Decision Pending". I've been there since 11/8. I think the consensus is that if they really, really liked you, you got selected early. The rest of us wait in a pool until they can assess the bulk of their applications to see where we stand. To be at "Decision Pending" now is not great, but not necessarily bad. We just don't know yet.dgore wrote:Application was received on 11/30.LSATfromNC wrote:I'm at the dreaded decision pending less than 2 weeks after applying.

This sounds like a yield protect. They think that you are using them as a safety and they don't want to extend an offer to you and then you reject it.mikeh915 wrote:I'm at decision pending too but my numbers are 3.54, 172.

Re: William & Mary
Im just pretty sure they have stop doing acceptances at this point and therefore everyone is decision pending simply because there is no movement on their front.....we need to stop over analyzing this and let it take this course and not freak out because they slowed down their admissions process. Washington and Lee did the same thing

Re: William & Mary
It seems like the people getting acceptances right now are pretty strong both LSAT and gpa-wise. Not sure what to make of the 172/3.5 guy, though. Maybe slightly too strong for an early admit? Have any splitters been admitted yet this year? My status hasn't changed since I went "complete" 12/02...
EDIT: For poor manners. Congrats to everyone being accepted! Glad at least some nerves are being eased!

Hey all!
Just stopping in with a little encouragement here -- just got my "congratulations" on the status checker! I'm in with a GPA above 75%, but an LSAT between 25% and the median -- so don't give up hope just yet!
Good luck everyone!!!

Thanks! To be honest, I have no idea what my first choice is at this point. Other than a unique interest in W&L (different story for a different day...not to mention I have not been accepted yet) my decision is completely up in the air. I did not apply to schools that I could not see myself attending, so for now I will simply celebrate being 2 for 2 and try (though probably unsuccessfully) not to stress out about making decisions. GL everyone!
