I feel like its time for a cycle update. I'm curious how everyone's cycle is going.

+1. I think we will definitely make a new thread after seat deposits are due and people have their complete results. I don't think having this in the general thread is a problem.

Yeah, around April (or maybe late March), someone usually makes a Destinations thread in the other board and I suppose one could be made specifically for URMs as well.

My father just used the term "Netflix and chill" slightly incorrectly to describe the relationship between Deadpool and Spiderman, and I'm so disturbed...

I made a new thread for results. I read that religiously and the advice section really helped me in my cycle preparation. We owe it to future URM classes to store the cycle results there! I know people have no idea where there going and are waiting from a bunch of schools but we can update it when we're sure.

Join me on the other thread so I don't look like a lonely loser...k thanks: http://www.top-law-schools.com/forums/v ... 4&t=275052

I got a call from Dean Rahman with an in from Richmond! I was also waitlisted at BC a week ago which is great considering my numbers. I'M GOING TO LAW SCHOOL. Feels so great to get my first acceptance and to realize I'm a step closer to achieving my dreams.
