Congrats!

Any more updates? Ive been stuck at 2nd read for over a week and its killing me!

Any updates?

Same. Have been in 2nd read for a bit.

Interesting. I'm wondering if they're going to keep us on ice until the app deadline on July 10. I got mine in before the "priority deadline" but may be on the fence so they want to wait and see who else applies.

You guys don't have to worry. They aren't rolling admission--they apparently send out all decisions at once (or twice, depending on if you made the priority deadline). At least that's what was said over the phone.

Hmm well the app complete email said they are reviewed on a rolling basis. A friend of mine also told me that two of her friends were admitted last week. I guess there's nothing to do but wait haha.

Called admissions. Apparently I was incorrect and they dont' do rolling admissions. The lady said I probably wouldn't hear anything until after their deadline of July 10. Weird though because others have heard including two that are friends of a friend.

Yeah I think they review on a rolling basis. But I know of a couple people, too, that have got in so there are probably defined "waves"

Ahhh just went to final review. Fingers crossed!

Just submitted my LSAC app today. Hope it doesn't hurt me! I already feel like a borderline applicant to begin with, but might as well try.

When did everyone get their apps in and how long did it take for them to mark your app complete/go into first read?

Update: Received an email today (Sunday morning, kind of strange) saying they received my application.

I wonder if they work weekends?
