First post, I'm just checking in in case it's helpful to anyone else! I got in last week and I submitted my application at the end of Sept. I was waitlisted last year but I got a higher LSAT score this time (172) with a littleeee below the average GPA.

To those that got in today, when did you go under review?

Seriously? What are you waiting for?
