First wave of URs took about 2.5 weeks from UR-> decision, with the second wave of URs going out on decision day. Wonder if this third wave of URs means people from the second wave will hear back soon? Any insight from past cycles? Eek.

I was in the second wave of UR's and am hoping for something on Friday, since that's when the most movement has been so far. But who knows, honestly.

This Friday? I'm also in this wave, and my brain can't grapple with the idea of hearing so soon. I'm feeling next Friday, and that aligns pretty well with the 2.5 weeks estimate.

For some reason I had it in my head that I would get a Berkeley decision in late November, so I'm just excited that it should actually come within the next few weeks!

How long did it take for you guys to go from received to complete?
It's been two weeks since I've submitted mine and it's still incomplete.
I am seeing people in law school numbers who turned in later than me & went complete already.
I wrote to the admissions but they told me not to worry, that they are processing the applications in the order of blah blah
Yet I am still worried :(

Hmm, don't worry :)! Probably lagging because of exactly what they said about processing a high volume of apps.

It seems like it was just a small group that day, so hopefully a big round is coming up soon.

Yeah. Took a few weeks for me (and others) to go complete. Definitely wouldn't stress out yet.

It means they have received all of the components of your application (app, LOR, LSAT scores, resume, statement) from LSAC. It will probably stay that way for a couple of weeks and then change to "Under Review." from UR->Decision has been about 2/3 weeks, I think.

I applied 10/23, went complete 10/24, Under Review 11/6, waiting on a decision...

Good luck!

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

Now there's a charge.
