Clearly the higher LSATs are over-represented, and it would seem logical that a higher percentage of such people would enjoy scholarship offers than is perhaps the norm. Right?
That is true, so maybe LSN isn't a good place like I thought.. Either way, we'll find out in a few days (hopefully good news :) )

It's fine, just not an accurate sample of the overall pool, which we already pretty much knew. Here's hoping to money!

Getting around that (i.e. 48k-60k) would pretty much end my cycle.... congrats!

Thanks everyone... I feel very lucky. Thank you TLS for all the wisdom and laughter of the last 10-odd months... and good luck to those still waiting for acceptances/scholly offers.

That's awesome! Getting a great scholly from one of your top choices must feel awesome!

At this point I don't really know. I got a finalist invite for one of NYU's named schollies, so that would be a game changer since it's a full ride. But if I don't get that it's nice to know that I have a good-sized cushion elsewhere.

OK so quick interruption of scholly news for a q I had... Do most people in Duke Law have cars, bikes, or neither?

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.

I'm pretty sure most people have cars. If you have visited you would understand why. Also, ASW mentions most people have a car.

@lawmonkey.

Damn! but not surprised... I'm more surprised by my 54k than by your 90k (given that Duke is my highest-ranked acceptance, whereas you've broken T6).
