Just got my JR2! In at Harvard!

My God, that call was almost as crazy as the JR1. I couldn't even trust myself to say anything more than "okay" and "thank you."

Good luck to everyone else this glorious Monday!

Wow, Spaacemonkee, didn't you just have your JR1 last week? That's awesome! It's so funny how it moves so quickly for some people and so slowly for others.

Same for me! It was all a blur. I have to prepare for a big presentation for tomorrow but can't focus on it at all.

I'm the same way. I keep thinking about all the stuff I have to do, but my brain just keeps saying, "Who cares!? You're in at Harvard!"

by get in do you mean jr1 or jr2. Also, did you get a jr1?
I mean JR2s, and no I haven't gotten a JR1, so it's not particularly exciting for me, but.... movement is cool.
QFP. It's nice to be right; it'd be nicer to have a JR anything. Congrats guys!

Woke up to a JR2 this morning!

To add to the data and give hope to those still waiting (I think my path to a JR2 is pretty non-traditional):
Applied - 9.21
Complete - 10.6
Complete e-mail - 10.14
Held e-mail - 1.10
LOCI sent - 1.12
JR1 e-mail - 1.13 (no chance my LOCI was a factor)
JR1- 1.19
JR2 - 1.24

LSAT - Above median; GPA - Above 75th

The phone interview was everything you read it is: Why law school? Why Harvard? Any questions? For the interview, I think the best thing you can do is express a specific interest and explain how Harvard will help you pursue whatever your life passion may be.

Good luck to everyone still waiting! I waited 4 long months for a JR1 and survived the "hold" pile.

This is inspiring--don't feel so bad about being held now!
