I have really strong ties to the firm and it took about a week for my offer. I wouldn't panic just yet.

Even though someone who interviewed on the same day as you has already heard back? Trying to stay positive... Really like the firm.

Yes. I would say you're not out till you're out.

Any new news?

Also, anyone know the CB/Offer rate for 2013? Columbia stats show ~50% for 2012 and ~68% for 2011.

It's probably going to vary dramatically by school

For my HYS for the same years it's about 20 percent higher

Can't stress enough that you're not out until you're out. I know someone who does interviews for STB and he said that of the 10+ people he had interviewed, only one of them had a decision good or bad.

Same here. Hoping that the delay is because of the holiday weekend and not because there are too many outstanding offers.

Their CB: offer rate is way too high for none of us to have gotten an offer. Or at least that's what I'm telling myself.

I've heard a lot of people who received offers have accepted, not sure if that is part of the delay or not.

That's not uncommon for late August though. Simpson has enormous classes so I'm not too worried about it (yet).

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

Now there's a charge.
