Well, now I'm just confused. From the e-mail we just received regarding OCI:

"If the column reads 'preselect' next to the employer, you have been selected for an interview. . . . When scheduling opens, "preselect" will change to 'accept preselect.'"

This would indicate that the results will go up before scheduling opens at 9PM tomorrow, but WHEN that will happen, who knows? Three cheers for 1) hopelessly analyzing things we can't control and 2) clicking refresh a LOT.

Not gonna lie I've been refreshing the shit out of OCI lately. Need to stop. Yeah results will be out basically anytime between now and 9pm.

does anyone know/remember when they came out last year or how long before the 9pm signup time they usually show up?

Based on last year's thread, it looks like Symplicity glitched out at midnight and showed everyone their bids for a while until CDO shut it off in the morning... and then it came back in the afternoon. This is all conjecture based on: http://www.top-law-schools.com/forums/v ... 3&t=126471

So I'm gonna be up late tonight then lol.

THEY'RE UP! Counting now...

[Anonymous User]

They're up.

1 alternate. 1 preselect.

37 bids.

FML.

I mean I knew my grades were bad, but now I'm starting to wonder if I wrote leper on my resume somewhere...

EDIT: Oh yea, the relevant stats I suppose. Below median, no journal, several extra-currics, judicial internship this summer (state court).

Alternate with McKenna Long, preselect Bryan Cave NY.

[Anonymous User]

[Eco]

Not gonna give numbers, but I did ok. Not enough to make me happy or anything but at least I didn't strike out. gw scholar, sec journal.

[ResIpsa21]

Would also prefer not to give exact numbers, but low double digit preselects + low single digit alternates. TM scholar, sec journal.

[Anonymous User]

Wow, that's actually slightly concerning to me.

[sky7]

Swing and a miss. 4LE, IP, slightly below median.

[Anonymous User]

Top 5%, LR: 26 preselects, 4 alternates

[sky7]

I thought that being a member of the Promissory Notes would for sure give me an edge...

[Anonymous User]

Transfer Student: 3 preselects, 1 alternative. Lawls. Curiously, the alternative is a V10 that I applied to because I had an extra bid.

[Anonymous User]

transfer: 9 preselect, 1 alt but weird results re vault rankings

[Anonymous User]
