Does anyone know how to unsubscribe from ALL e-mails from law schools telling you about how great their programs are? I cannot stand the 20 e-mails a day from university of no one will ever attend e-mailing me every single day.

I did and it didn't work.

A good question though...How much money a year do you think schools spend in total sending those e-mails that 99% of people just ignore?

I am so curious to see if it is say 1,000$... 10,000$...or do you think that is low?

Don't unsubscribe, that's how you get unsolicited fee waivers.

No school worth attending sends out unsolicited fee waivers

Is half of the T14 not worth attending?

Do they go grey in Feb? Paging Clearly

Yep, like any other score release, the icons will go grey either the day scores come out, or automatically at midnight of the announced score release date if they haven't been released early. Icons still go grey because you still get some documentation back (writing sample etc)

LOL Just becase you don't have the numbers to get them, doesn't mean they aren't going out.

Deep thought today folks...I am thinking about getting hammered and wandering around downtown with my pants upon my ankles until LSAC releases our scores...

Which downtown are we talking about here? In parts of the city I live in, this is considered normal behavior.

Hey Han, got a few suggestions, a few sci fi thrillers mixed in if you're into that kind of thing.

Ancestor - Scott Sigler
Brainrush - Richard Bard
Wired - Douglas E Richards
The Abbey - Chris Culver
Public Enemy Zero - Andrew Mayne
Nightgame - Carol Davis Luce

And if you're into steampunk with magic elements (think Bioshock meets LotR) the Mistborn series by Brandon Sanderson is awesome and worth the time. Also First Law trilogy by Joe Abercrombie - similar fantasy elements but much darker.

Thanks so much. My library has The Abbey so I'll give that one a shot.
