Thanks!

Those are kinda hard to read though (just follow one section thru the week) and don't include our legal writing and research classes.

Here's one that's easier to work with:

scotty/fiero/etc, think it'd be reasonable for me to consider keeping my part-time job for one night a week? my shifts are usually 3:30-8/9. I'll obviously wait to talk to my boss until I get my class schedule in july

My bad, I was thinking after 9pm raging would come after work.

Weekdays would work you'll just have to plan ahead. You can handle it. 5-10 hrs in a week is not a huge hurdle, and will provide some much needed beer money 8) .

yeah, I figure I'll try it if it works out with my class schedule and obviously if I don't think I can handle it, I'll quit. def not volunteering for a weekend shift though, since I'd be stuck there until 10 or so (which would severely interfere with my rage time)

1) yes

2) he is the consensus best 1L teacher. Actually teaches instead of being lazy and hiding behind the Socratic method like a good amount of my profs have. He's a cool guy too.

3) No he's tactful enough to know we are already screwed lol. But really, he doesn't take class time for that. he runs a tight ship in the classroom. He's very open to talk with students about goals, choices, and what not. Real straight shooter.

I don't know if they're still doing acceptances only on Wednesday and Friday (someone here was accepted on a Thursday), but they usually send them out on Wednesday and Friday. I think I got mine at like 6 or 7 pm eastern on a Friday night.

As for how long after an interview, it depends. Some people got accepted the same day if it was on an acceptance day.

My interviewer Monday said Wed, Fri. were a good bet to hear back. I don't expect to hear back today was thinking probably Friday at the earliest. Just didn't know what the timeline was looking like.

Tamanaha is one of my favorite humans. He's also very suave.
