Howdy all, apologies if this has been addressed in one form or another but could use a TLS hand!
I'm on the waitlist at both Texas A&M and SMU. I'd really love to attend both and am unsure what else I can do to.
Taking the LSAT again is out since I'm past the deadlines. I've had some contact with some admissions folk at A&M. No luck at SMU.
I've submitted a LOCI at both schools. Is there anything I should be doing to help my chances? Is it a bad idea to tell them both that I would be willing to immediately accept if offered?
Thanks!

You really should retake the LSAT and try again next year. Going to either school at full-price is not a very good idea and, frankly, your chances of getting in in July are slim no matter what you do.

Re: Need some help navigating the waitlist
Yeah, let's back up a bit:
What are your current stats? And what do you want to do with your degree?
In terms of your current situation, you can't do much to get yourself off these waitlists. But these schools (A&M in particular) could saddle you with an immense amount of debt and leave you with no viable way to pay it off. So the more important question is why you've targeted these schools.
