Same here on all counts :? . Above LSAT 75th and a smidge below GPA median. It seems like today's wave was small compared to the wave on 11/21.

Also nervous. My numbers are on the low side, but my softs are decent. Fingers crossed for all of us.

So, when you pick up the phone and Dean Tom tells you you're in, do you recommend acting uninterested/mildly amused, or do you immediately start screaming with unfettered enthusiasm?

You'll probably get an email instead

No.

You didn't get in only if you receive an email from the admissions office telling you that you didn't get in. Everything else just falls somewhere within the black box of admissions.

I got the voicemail... I did indeed start screaming on the silent floor of the library and had the urge to call him back. I'd imagine I would have done the same on the phone with him!

Some of the same stats, UR at 17 November, but no call yet. I hope the long-distance charges of calling a french number aren't putting them off.

Yeah-the Boalt twitter page says:

"Some calls going out but no time to phone most recent admits. Watch for emails in next 48 hours"

I've been continuously having mini panic attacks every time I get a notification for an email on my phone!

I sure was glad to get accepted to Berkeley back on 11/21. (I love the east bay so damn much and think the world of the JSP program.)

That said, I am sincerely jealous of all of you who received calls from Dean Tom. That phone call interaction seems significantly more exciting than the email.

Anyway, email or phone call, congrats to all!

I never received a call/voicemail, although I've been having some phone trouble so it's possible I missed it. Either way, in today via email (UR 11/3)! Really excited.

For those who heard via email/phone calls in the last 24 hours or so, what does your status checker say?

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

Now there's a charge.
Just kidding ... it's still FREE!
