I believe there's already been some RD acceptances.... Unless they were PT.

There have been some non-PT RD decisions but think the consensus was that there had just been a few one offs, no major waves. Haven't been keeping up with the thread lately so maybe something has changed since then

Anyone else whose interview got cancelled today? I was told I'd get an email tomorrow to reschedule but I hope that doesn't mean I have to wait until Feb. or whenever the next available interview is :cry: :cry:

It was discussed earlier in this thread. The committee doesn't meet til the end of January and then goes through those that have interviewed in order of when they went. I interviewed today and was told I should hear by around mid-February.

I'm like the reverse version of this.

GPA = 25th (slightly higher)
LSAT > 75th
non URM
no real softs except work experience

PT, complete 1/10... holding my breath
Hanging out with you folks. PT, complete 1/13. Wish us all the best!

Wait. Why'd you mention the 2017 LSAT? Are you planning on taking it?
