tell hys to hold application, or review it now?

Post by blueberrybagel » Thu Nov 06, 2014 5:04 pm

Asian American male with gpa of 3.93 and lsat of 169 and 166, so i'm retaking in dec. i've submitted my apps so they can go "complete." should i tell hys to hold my application from review, or should i let them go ahead with it? the reason i ask is because i've looked at LSN, and it looks like rejection/"hold decisions weren't usually sent out until late jan/feb for applicants with my stats. idk if i should risk it (with the advantage of applying earlier) or wait... thoughts?

I would let hys know that you're retaking. The advantage of having your app reviewed a month or two earlier is pretty negligible, especially nowadays I imagine.

During my cycle H made a decision for me with a pending retake

S held until the score from the retake came out

Not sure on Y
