Waitlisted with a 164 and 3.65. Based on LSN, calling BS on this one. Oh well. WUSTL and ND are giving me money. And I have a connection that might get me in somewhere big (maybe !) so I'll be ok.

Our scores are too close for this not to be scary for me - I'm a little higher on the LSAT but u have me by .15 on the gpa :/ this doth not bode well...

Normal caveats apply w/ LSN data, but it certainly looks like they're drawing a hard line at 165.

I just missed the acceptance call. They left a voicemail, but that would have been such a nice call to receive in person.
PM if you need numbers & good luck to everybody still waiting to hear back!

I applied early January and went complete on 1/17. Today I got a date change to 1/28 but it still says "in review"

Should I be expecting a decision soon? Have others had two different in review dates?
