I was wondering the same thing. I went UR 10/18. I am slightly below 25%.
+1 UR 10/18. every day i don't get a ding email is another day I'm still in the running.
+ 2 10/18... hoping to go to committee review!
+3 10/18. Glad there are other people who have been UR for that long...I thought my internets were broken.

There have been dings right? Then if you guys are still standing, it's a decent sign that you will be further reviewed. That was my date, so they must have completed initial review for all of you 10/18ers.

Good luck to yall!

UR 11/8 - wonder if I've been through initial review yet or not.

UR 11/8, I'm right here with you! And I think we must have been reviewed since applicants after us have already been accepted/dinged. that means we at least survived? :?

I'm 11/8 as well. If I know anything about 11/8ers--and I do--it's that we're fighters.

Have any of you guys that submitted in October/November and haven't heard anything thought about sending an LOCI? Any idea how Berkeley feels about those before WL's go out?

I sent one, and an additional LOR which is now showing under my Recommender's section in status check. Have no idea how they feel about it, but I figured it couldn't hurt.

Just got in by email... submitted 12/25, complete 12/27, under review the entire time between then and now with no changes to status checker. Used the same 2-page PS I used everywhere else. 3.9/170. I'm at work and totally said "Holy shit!" too loudly when I opened the email.

It's funny because I've known since Friday that NYU has made a decision about me, but I have to wait to get their letter to know what it is, and in the meantime, two other schools have let me in via email.

I submitted 12/27, in review since 1/7; LSAT 171, UGPA much lower, 3.1. URM, hoping I get lucky--Berkeley is my top choice.

Also in by email just now. Submitted 1/12, Complete 1/13, Under Review 1/21.

Went to Berkeley for undergrad so maybe that explains the fast turnaround. I finished very jaded and sick of the school and the city in general, so this is going to be a hard decision whether to go back there or take my talents to south beach.

Communicate now with those who not only know what a legal education is, but can offer you worthy advice and commentary as you complete the three most educational, yet challenging years of your law related post graduate life.
