can you expand a little? obviously he has amazing accomplishments under his belt, but anything in the last, say, 10 years (aside from writing casebooks) that draws you here?

Friday seems like a day they would call. I have no idea. Last year seems to be a week turn around. The year before that two weeks. People already have acceptances but I imagine that they got flooded with apps around the deadline so the rest of them might take longer.

Congratulations all!

I haven't heard anything and I've been under review since 6/10. I don't think I got in :(

Nope. One of my friends with much better grades than I have got an email the same day saying that his application was complete.

Hmm. But does that mean that a decision has been rendered? Or just that it's UR? I've been UR since 6/17, so it seems that I'm on a similar timeframe to people who received acceptances yesterday.

Now there's a charge.
