I think it's a mix of my transcripts not being sent until right before July 4th weekend and my school's tough curve. I actually went on LSAC to re-read all of my applications to make sure I didn't have any mistakes on them.

I think WE was a really difference-maker for transfers. I also out-performed my numbers (though you did better since you got Penn and Berkeley!)

Yes - I am. It's only really upsetting because I am very unhappy at my current school and want to go to a school which will allow me to practice in New York. Hence, I was really hoping for Fordham. I guess I now need to pray for a miracle from the others since it seems I'm getting a ding from GTown too.

I really think you'll get Penn (at least). I am at a lower ranked school and am ranked only marginally higher (#4, which puts me at 1-2%), my rec letters were probably only ok (A's in both classes, but not a stellar bond with the teachers), my personal statement was a B+ at best. Worry not. You'll get something.

Are you in the 7/11 group? There were already rejections and acceptances from our group, so we're probably in some sort of "hold" pattern. A ton of the "accepts" got into H/CLS/NYU, so hopefully that's good for us.

Communicate now with those who not only know what a legal education is, but can offer you worthy advice and commentary as you complete the three most educational, yet challenging years of your law related post graduate life.

Yes I am - Do we know when their deposit deadline is? I would be ecstatic to get in there.

Mine was 7/18. It seems like they will always give you about a week from the offer. There was also some info in the transfer materials they sent, saying you will not be at any disadvantage for OCI, no matter when you are admitted.
