Does anyone know how much HYS dips into their waitlists/held applicants? I'm not really sure where to look for that info.

stanford and yale not so much. harvard takes a pretty significant number from what ive seen.

From LSN


Year | S | H | Y
2006 | 4 | 17 |
2007 | 6 | 10 |
2008 | 8 | 12 | 3
2009 | 2 | 16 | 4

Thanks a lot!! Super helpful- didn't think to search limiting for that- duh.

And keep in mind many people think the number of WLs at HLS runs into the hundreds, so your chances are still slim even though they take significantly more than Y/S.

True, I'm just contemplating retaking the LSAT in February to improve my chances there since I'm already in with $$ at some of my favorite schools, don't feel like I have too much to lose

Sounds reasonable to me, and a higher score may help at HLS. Best of luck!

Sounds like a great plan to me. Best of luck on the Feb test.
