I wouldn't worry too much yet - I have high stats, but not nearly as high as many of today's admits (173 retake, 3.9). And I sent in my generic 2 page PS FWIW.
i got in yesterday but with a 171/3.9, and i was wondering what order they were making the calls in....it seemed weird that the high stats people were after me but who knows?

my PS was basically the same one i sent the other schools, except that i used an earlier draft that was somewhat longer (between 2 and 3 pages)

Well, at this point I'm pretty sure I'm not going to get a call. No one with an LSAT as low as mine has been called on LSN. Even though, in previous years, they have... Oh well.

Then I'll just regress, because I feel like I made myself perfectly redundant.
