Email just now. Applied before Thanksgiving. Off campus interview just after Christmas. Aboveat median GPA. Close to 25% LSAT. Good WE and LOR's. Definitely a reach.

Congrats! I know that was stressing you out so glad it worked out.

I guess I'll probably see you in 18 months!
Thanks, Bumi! I can finally book my plane tickets for this year's ASW (yes, I'm going this year and next. They said I could!)

1 out of every 20 or so matriculants is someone straight out of undergrad with numbers way over both medians. I'm not sure if I buy the "if you don't have work experience you have to interview" line.

Periodically using Twitter to remind me that they are definitely making decisions, except not for me.
