I am thinking the latter. Anyhow thanks everyone!
I'll PM you!

I have similar stats and I was waitlisted. I'd retake the LSAT for a better shot at being admitted. aim for 167

Waitlisted here too. That makes 4 waitlists for me. Not super surprised given my stats but still a little disappointed. Will definitely stick this out!

I'm also cr2 2/9. Was encouraged at first because I applied jan 27 so it seemed like my app was going to breeze right on through. It did not.

I 100% am not going to usc anymore barring something crazy. But I still want to know. I thought I'd be a solid candidate for usc and they would have been a top choice for me. Weird how things play out. Wonder why they are taking so long with ours

I just looked at one of the previous year's forums and people who didn't do the video were apparently the first to be taken off the waitlist. I am so confused.

Honestly the people who thought they had competitive numbers probably did not feel the need to do the videos
