Don't worry, I'm positive some good news is coming.

Where does your Cornell app stand? Have you already gone complete and in review? Is it still your dream law school?
I've been complete for a while now. It is, if they give me enough money lol. If not, then I'm good.
Pulling for you! FWIW, I've been waiting on Cornell since early December and they have been slooooooooowww for a lot of people.

Who else are we waiting on?

Given your current acceptances, which school are you leaning towards? Is it now or never or will you reapply?

Hang in there, brother.

I am seriously considering it since the West Coast is where I ultimately want to practice. But I know these Cali schools I applied to are reaches because it seems like they really like high GPAs. And thank you.

I am waiting on quite a few schools. I applied to alot. But in the T14 i am waiting on Duke, Berkeley, Columbia, and Cornell. Which the first 3 are real reaches because they seem to like high GPAs. I am not in a do or die type of mode but I do want to attend law school this year. I may just attend William and Mary and transfer if I dont like it. Just going to remain optimistic

Nothing wrong with riding out the wait list! You can come to no harm from it. Also W & M is a great school.
