Harvard C/O 2019 Applicants Forum

[Li'l Sebastian]

BTW, how many people are currently in the HLS C/O 2019 Facebook group?

130, though that's including all the admins/student ambassadors

I've never wanted to join a FB group so badly before.

This wait is so long that I'm considering applying to Yale...

OH MY GOD DID YOU NOT APPLY TO YALE WITH YOUR STATS?!?!?!?

This. +SLS

I'm almost disgusted you didn't apply to Yale (& SLS?) with your stats. You clearly are not deserving of near perfect credentials. Therefore it is only fair that we swap LSAT scores. I will petition LSAC immediately to rectify the situation.

You gotta admit that my logic expounded in my previous post is solid though; the only reason a YLS app would have made a difference is if I was accepted to Y but rejected from H. And I'm pretty sure the Bayesian probability of getting rejected from H conditioned on having been accepted to Y is 0.

(FWIW I did apply to SLS)

Might wanna write that 250

Re: cats, after someone with a Power Ranger avatar was accepted at Yale, this happened.

I didn't apply to Yale either despite solid odds with my numbers+resume, and I know from PMs that at least one other frequent poster here with Yale numbers didn't either. Yale over Harvard is extremely overrated unless you have very specific goals (I'm always itching for that debate to take off lol), and I have no interest in spending 3 years in New Fucking Haven.

That said, had I not been accepted to Harvard in the first wave, I definitely would have sent in a Yale app just in case.

I'm exploding with nervous energy.

Shhh, if QC goes to Yale that frees up my HLS slot. Don't argue my logic on this.

What if this whole week is another standstill?

I'm going to maintain my state of high expectations through tomorrow at 4pm. Then I'm going to start expecting none of us hear until March. In all seriousness, this has become too distracting for me.

There have been waves of decisions (including at least some acceptances) in the first week of February each of the last three years. It makes sense that once Admissions has every application in hand, they can do a quick scan of their LSAT/GPA spreadsheets and shoot out at least a handful of decisions. So, I think it would be very surprising if we didn't see any movement this week.

Well now I'll know exactly who to blame when HLS dings me.

H>>>>>Y except for the grading scale, and Harvard's is super nice anyways!

And in the last election both candidates were Harvard Law alumni!

Oh well in that case, H is clearly better than Y.
