Is top 7 the best I'm gonna get?? I'm really happy with getting into Berk/UVA but I wanna fall in love with one of them and not think about getting into better! Ha. I'm a planner 3.96/169 MA

You'll be in HYS, Don. Guarantee that.

I received an email this morning from UVA inviting me to call the Dean of Admissions to talk about my application, I called and he asked me a couple questions regarding if I was still interested and if there was anything else admissions should know before they make their decision and then I was offered ADMISSION!!

He told me I was accepted and that I would be getting $60,000. It was a great conversation and he was SO nice. If you get this email definitely don't stress and just be honest. Best of luck to everyone!

Congrats! Yes, this year Harvard will conduct JS1s by Skype as opposed to by phone. I wish you all the best for the interview. I'm sure you will do great!

haha! All fingers crossed, and all knuckles knocking on wood (including the the toe knuckles).

I am still wishing all the luck to everyone still waiting and sending out encouragement to those who doubt that things other than numbers matter. 164/3.96 aa male. with an early js1. You can do it too!

3.92/162 (may go up when dec scores are released).


Blanketed the T14 but I'm starting to get nervous, havnt heard anything...I dont have much money, but should I start borrow a couple of hundred and start spraying 15-25?

I doubt it, but if you do, I wouldn't apply much lower than Vandy/Texas. A couple acceptances might make you sleep easier

Worm lemme tell you something. I'm a reverse splitter and I let TLS convince me that I wouldn't have a chance at the T-14. I applied anyway for shits and giggles but ED'd to GWU because I hoped to maybe by some miracle get into a T-20 school. Now I'm in at UVA with money and really annoyed with myself for EDing to GWU. I said that to say this, your numbers are way higher than mine and if I can get in, surely you've got more than a shot.

All I need is one...I'm starting to have faux panic attacks about not getting into law school.

I have one (Texas) and I am still frantically refreshing email/status checkers. You applied lateish right? Every time someone who went complete after gets a JS1 I lose a little hope. It's not about one acceptance, I think its about the one.

Thank you! FYI I submitted the same day as efresquez88 who was admitted about 2 days ago and interview was about 2 weeks ago. So, no one count yourself out just yet. It is still early!
