Don't worry so much Sophie! I'm sure they're all still in shock and trying to figure out how much $ to offer you. Stanford could be drooling this very moment, just give 'em some time. :wink:

LOL. And you still can't spread the knowledge or share any advice on what you found useful in helping you ace the LSATs, right?

No probs, Sophie. Thanks for ignoring my PM. Good luck to you either way. :wink:

My #1 LSAT tip is to convince yourself that it's fun instead of work.

Thanks CryingMonkey. Glad to see other URMs willing to impart their knowledge to others. I'll have to PM you for more specifics, if that's okay with you? :)

Earlier is usually better, but I don't think December 1st is cycle suicide. I believe the rule of thumb is that apps sent in between Thanksgiving and the New Year are considered "On-Time." (Feel free to correct me if this is incorrect.)

Out of curiosity, why Dec. 1st?

Can't afford to shell out the $$ for apps. Have to wait until I get paid on the 1st.
