Probably still not applying though.

You probably should apply.

They denied me last when my LSAT was lower. I EDed for them because I was super enthralled with Ann Arbor and Michigan. I didn't even get a courtesy waitlist.

I know it's dumb and petty, but so am I.

I'm curious to know what your LSAT score/stats were was when you were denied. I ask because I am considering EDing at Michigan.

165/3.72, so right around median GPA and between 25th and 50th LSAT.

Well, then they just hate me and there's still no point in applying. You seem nice, by the way.

You could try and polish up your application better, instead of taking a "it's their fault" attitude.

I will take your input into consideration as I still don't apply to Michigan. I appreciate you taking the time to give me your opinion about this matter, and I understand your compelling interest in my decisions this cycle.

Take care and good luck with your cycle!

I don't have a shot in hell at Darrow, but the rest of the options are all pluses in my opinion. I just really love Michigan, though.

Definitely Architecture! If I end up at Michigan I will definitely live at the Lawyer's club and be all about that law school quad!

I read it more as Clarence Darrow being an alumnus not as Darrow scholarship

Yeah, you're right. All the options are pluses then!

+1. Add in the great breweries in Michigan and honestly, I wouldn't mind living/studying in Ann Arbor for 3 years.

+1 for mention of the great breweries in Michigan. A Founders brew after a productive week of law school, while tailgating at the golf course for a game in the Big House sounds really nice.

+1 minus the harvard part. also tailgating before football games sounds incredible.

I have tailgated there a good bit, and it is a blast. Largest American football stadium in the world!
