[winterorange]

I dont understand the condolences for people getting waitlisted

You are being considered for one of the best law schools in the WORLD, just because you have great numbers it doesnt mean you are entitled to anything.

I am quite happy with my waitlist which just came in, typical reverse splitter.

Will ride this to the end.

People are being moved from a pool of post-JS1s where the average person had a better than even chance of getting in to a waitlist where being admitted is a long shot. It sucks. If you're actually trying to, you know, get in and aren't just looking for a pat on the back from one of the best law schools in the WORLD, it's depressing news. Especially when it condemns you to 5 more months of uncertainty.

This. This exactly. I have no clue how long I'm willing to wait, whether I should just sit out and reapply, whether I should take the money elsewhere...just no clue. I was hoping to have the opportunity to do the ASW and make an informed decision, but being in limbo doesn't help me make decisions.

For those of you who are perfectly happy, that's awesome. I totally recognize that even getting an interview, or getting to the wait list is an accomplishment. It just feels like an incomplete one to me, and my desire to solidify my plans for the fall makes me not as happy about it as y'all are.

[MEASPECIALSNOWFLAKE?]

Waitlisted at 11:29 PDT. Applied in January, complete mid January. Last name in middle of the alphabet. GPA>median>LSAT. Strong softs. No JS1.

Here I is Still standing with a mid January complete date and a late March JS2. Trying to take that as a positive sign!

Sorry about all the WLs, you guys. And I hope the rest of is standing have good news coming our way

[yomisterd]

Late Feb JS1... Oh the uncertainty. I'm holding out hope for a JS2, but...

[liammial]

how are your guys' stats looking?

[Arrow4Christ]

Late Feb JS1... Oh the uncertainty. I'm holding out hope for a JS2, but...

The JS2s haven't reached our JS1 dates yet that I know of, so maybe we've still got a shot

[teampeeta]

I am a JS0 still alive for the moment. LSAT around median, GPA<25th. Applied Jan, complete mid-Feb. I'm an URM.

Today was a rough day. I have no idea what to expect next week.

[a.sleepyhead]

I'm sorry/happy for all the WL candidates. You guys are all going to have great options either way.

Nov complete, Jan JS1 here. Tons of people w my stats/JS1 date got WLed today, they must have forgotten me (unless I'm about to get dinged).

Hang in there, guys.

[sherealcool]

[Arrow4Christ]

I just hope there are some more JS2s to go around and we're not just up next for dings or WLs

[Black_Swan]

Late February JS1. Hopefully Monday is a good day.

[lawschool22]

Sameeee and it's driving me bananas.

[barrelofmonkeys]

i think this might be interesting to some of you later JS1s (from the harvard waitlist thread)

Checking in. Stats in profile. JS1 in march. Waitlist email this afternoon.

Better than a ding.

Yeah I saw that... I wonder if other March JS1s have heard but just are not speaking. I really thought that March JS1's are waiting for their doom on Monday... but who knows... whatever, it's the weekend!
