Probably, but it may have been a small wave. Some spots for next week disappeared, plus a handful for the week after. But there are still 20+ open for the 16th, 17th, and 18th.

some people got the letter, but don't know they got it, or they simply did not book a spot, its hard to imagine that everybody who got JS1 book their spot within less than 1 hour

Or they may have just closed up a few slots. Idk. I'll keep an eye on it today, though.

Maybe being optimistic here, but just seems as though not enough action on here and LSN to be a full wave, especially seeing as there were 50 or so spots open.

Even fewer slots now. Only 3 left on the 11th, although there are plenty for the following week.

I guess I find it a little hard to believe that there was a JS1 wave so small that just one person on TLS got the email...anyone else feelin' that?

I don't know what to think right now, just getting increasingly paranoid. Above both medians and complete 11/3. Really thought I would be in the next wave. I guess I am kind of hoping it just did not happen or something, but starting to get really worried.

More than one person on TLS was in the wave, but it was a small wave. I'd estimate about ~20 got it. There are still another 44 slots open though, so there's more than enough for another wave this week.

Where can I find the users who didn't post on this thread but got JS1 today? I see that exactly one person posted on this thread saying that he/she received a JS1 offer. Thanks~

In light of LSACs release of applications for this cycle, here are HLS numbers for the past few years:
  • 2013: 5485 applications
    2012: 5388 applications
    2011: 6335 applications
A big drop from 2011 to 2012 but 2012 from 2013 very slightly increased.

Guesses on how this cycle will turn out?

I was waitlisted after an interview last time and had numbers at/above 75ths. I imagine being a K-JD was a major reason, since it did come up in the interview. From what I gathered on TLS last year, other applicants who got rejected with good numbers were mostly k-jds as well.

similar experience with a JSDing last year

This is depressing :( Then did you go work before reapplying?

would any KJDs who got dinged after their interviews mind sharing how you responded to questions about not taking time off? please PM if you prefer!
