Wouldn't it be awful to get a DR tonight and then not be able to call until Monday morning?

So staying up late tonight to find out. Watch there be no DR tonight.

Was the last update at midnight EST--or do we know the exact time they switched to decision?

We don't know the exact time, no, but it happened very late. Just look back on the pages when they were admitted. It's at least past 11:00 PM.

11 p.m, really? wasn't it around 2 a.m. or 3 a.m.?

could they be working overtime and literally deciding on people late into the night?

Or more likely automated push from their database.

it's probably that, just curious why the automated push is happening like this.

I checked a little after midnight eastern (11something my time), and it had changed. I assume that means their system is programmed to change over at the start of the next day.

Agreed. I checked around 12:30 at night and by then it had changed to decision.

I can't decide how I feel about that 168 wall on LSN. On one hand, being to the left of any wall is scary. But on the other hand, it's not that far away and in past years it has "bent" left towards the top. (Of course, in past years that wall was 167 :cry: )

You're being too hard on yourself. Your LSAT is not that different from the median, and there will definitely be people who get accepted that are below the median. Guaranteed.

Are pretty much all the deferrals sent out already? We're looking at all rejects/accepts at this point?
