I don't want to freak you out, but I have similar numbers and went under the first committee review on Monday after submitting the week before Christmas. How far above the 75th is your LSAT? Could it be YP?


Wait that's a thing? (I had to look it up.) That would be so mean. My LSAT is only 172 though and my GPA is slightly below Median

Yeah, it is. And mine is a 168, so I don't know what could be going on besides that.

Wouldnt it have to go under review before they would do that though?

Good point. I don't know. They may index applications by LSAT score and then choose which to review first based on who they think is actually intent on going to USC. But that's pure conjecture on my part.

How long does it generally take between complete and committee 2nd read (is this the same as UR2)? I went complete yesterday, and unless I'm mistaken it was committee 1st read this morning, and now it already says committee 2nd read.

I don't even recall mine going to 1st read, so I think its pretty fast.
I don't think mine went to 1st read either (or at least I didn't see it), but I went complete 12/18 and then 2nd read 12/31.

I'm still under the first committee read, but I got a Rothman invite today, so that's good news.

Finally some movement. Committee first read.

I'm speculating that they read apps from higher stats people first. I applied well before some people who had movement very quickly, but I sat with my lower stats patiently. lol

Got another date change (within the past 3-4 hours or so). Was previously UR2 12/31, now UR2 1/7--does anyone know how UR2 date changes tend to bode?
