That would be some sick trolling.

I don't know what is worse, adcomm trolling or LSAC trolling. I'm torn.

Same here...I'd kinda given up hearing from them until March until this threaded prompted my to check my status which was under review, then went blank. Now I'm reading the previous 50 pages trying to understand WHAT IT ALL MEANS

I don't know if my f5 key can take much more. It was already on life support after the Dec LSAT.

as tom petty once said, the waiting is the hardest part. expecting another waitlist, which would make 3 in 2 days

Given the weird acceptance e-mails this morning, I would bet everyone that had a status change this morning will be the first big round of WL's this afternoon.

Ugh. That makes sense. And makes me sad simultaneously.

You know, I thought I'd have a productive, non adrenaline filled day today.

Man, I hope it's not a waitlist. I probably won't stay on one, but with scholarship money W&M is one of my top choices.

also, some people get emails later in the day because of the order of completion or by last name....any variety of factors not for certain correlated to acceptance/wl/ding whatever

yea so shut up whoever mentioned that numbskull idea

That doesn't sound right. They very clearly stated that most decisions would be made in March with a few decisions released as they're made up until then. Why would they bother to waitlist at the end of January?

Honestly, I would be devastated with a waitlist from W&M. I was waitlisted last year with a terrible LSAT score and have a at median score this time around. I visited the school, met with the DOA and wrote a why W&M essay. I would be distraught.

I agree, clearly anyone who experienced a status change this morning is in! :D

Granted, I was at the gym and have no idea if I did or not, but I'm going to go ahead and say I did.

Moral M I think you'll be fine

I think you'll be fine, I got in with almost the same #s although without a scholarship =/
Good luck to everybody still waiting!

Edit, failed at quotes on accident.
