Strange that there haven't been any additional updates from S after the 7:30am call
Agree that the profile posting the S acceptance seems totally legit, but also agree that this is the first time I have ever seen a school start admitting people and neither TLS nor LSN reporting multiple acceptances.

Maybe this person is international and has an extreme time difference?

And never mind, there's another acceptance in the Stanford thread.

godfuckingdamnit stop
These guys don't bother me as much--it's a good state school, as opposed to when some for-profit law school like Charlotte is filling my inbox with detritus. Can't say I really appreciate SAMford Law either...

Not that it's a bad school, but the subject line and lack of quick school identification was tricky.

Won't be the youngest, but not by much. Graduating in three years will make me younger than most.
I graduated early, too! Finished when I was 19. Decided that was too young to handle law school so I've been working for two years. Now I'm an oldie - going to be 23 in July. Sigh...
