I haz a waitlist

UCLA haz a withdraw

how did you find out?

e-mail

The title was "UCLA Law Decision" and the message went something like, "While we're not offering you a spot at this time, you are a very strong candidate who we bullshit bullshit bullshit bullshit, etc."

sry to hear helm. You wouldn't have liked it out here, anyway.

Don't feel sorry, I was going to withdraw from them anyway now that I have something in the T10 lined up. Hope I cleared a spot on the WL for somebody who really wants it.

haha made me choke there for a minute...sneaky with the tiny letters

[Hopefullawstudent]

Hearing that Helm has been WL at UCLA made me reach an interesting realization: A good LSAT is a double edged sword. It may get you rejected or waitlisted at as many - if not more - schools than it gets you into. Obviously, it's not necessarily bad to be wielding this sword, but just saying.

I was reading the UCLA waitlist thread from last year...and some people didn't even get a response up until late August. Then the thread died. So did my heart. UCLA Waitlist </3

Yeah, I think it was specifically mentioned in the WL e-mail that some people won't get off until the first day of classes or so. No thankayoo.

I got my rejection from Early Decision from UCLA this morning.

[JayTal]

Received an email about a 2 hours ago saying I was wait-listed. I'll be withdrawing so hopefully one of you will get it!

so what about those of us who have been RD and nothing since October? are we optimistic or not

Unsure about my optimism/pessimism ratio, but Really Pissed About Not Hearing Back Yet. Not that I'm feeling entitled to a quick decision, but it's certainly frustrating when other people with or below my numbers AND who submitted later have already gotten a decision. I didn't even want them that badly until it became apparent that they're not dying to have me

SRSLY, UCLA. COME ONNNNN!

The way an application is put together can communicate such sentiments. Just saying.

Oh, you mean when I ended my PS with "And that's why I feel mediocre about UCLA, which is not at the top of my list," it could have been taken badly by the adcom? Well, crap.

WL via email. 98%ile LSAT and mediocre GPA.

Fuck law school.

Meh, I submitted in late October and have numbers above both 75ths (but not too high!) and haven't heard a peep. LSN's in profile if you want to check it out for a little hope.
