Sub 165 LSAT last cycle, took my chances and reapplied with a higher LSAT in order to get more money from other schools and was rejected this year. Not a problem though because for personal reasons (wife etc.) I never planned on going to Harvard just wanted leverage so it is all good. But folks be sure you understand that even if you are a better applicant the second time and may be a so called (shoe in whatever that means) you may not get in again so be wise!
Same story here. So glad to hear I'm not alone. Doesn't seem HLS takes too kindly to re-applicants who have been admitted in the past.
Wait, you got dinged flip?
Yessir, they emailed 30 minutes ago and told me they don't want my black ass! "Keep it moving, negro!"

I'm sure I'll be crying from my room in Munger next year.
Awww man. Looks like you're forced to go to sTTTanford. Whatever will you do! LOL

I'm sorry to hear about the ding, but damn this post gave me a good laugh. Either way, I'm thrilled that you've got Stanford to console you.

Thanks man. Much appreciated. And I honestly have no clue yet. Didn't think I'd be weighing so many options.

Are you going to put us all through the "oh my god, I don't know if I'm going to Harvard thing, or are you just going to cut to the chase and sign your name"?
