Since the DR didn't come until after 4pm on 12/1 I'm betting they didn't put the letters in the mail until that point or even the following morning - which means that the mail carriers didn't pick them up until 12/2 (which is an optimistic outlook in that it's assuming that they put the letters out in the mail on 12/2 prior to pick up, instead of, say, in the afternoon because the admissions office was busy in the morning and then had an extended lunch or something).

So, best case scenario is that the letters weren't picked up until yesterday and there's at least a two day turn around for simple letters going through the USPS - though it usually ends up being three at the quickest.

tl;dr: Prediction: DC residents might see something tomorrow, all of us other folks will see something on Monday.


...Unless if there are emails involved. In which case: All bets are off.

My DR came late on 11/30 (after 4) and I was surprised to find the letter in my box the next day (in DC).

Just sayin'

so i should just wait for that email to come sometime at the end of the day tomorrow, so i can drown in my sorrow all weekend

that can only mean one thing. 12/1 are all rejects and they're just waiting "3-5" days before they email us.

Or...

everybody needs to calm down. There's no guarantee that they always send out the mail at the same time. Also, mail tends to take 2+ days through USPS.

hmmm so then is it 'what school would the purple monkeys go to' or 'what school would LOTHT go to?'

[H. E. Pennypacker]

where would gaga go to law school

Gotta be Berkeley

[gahthelaw]

where would gaga go to law school

gaga would have gone to NYU if she didn't go there for UG, so i'm going to say berkeley.

[puppleberry finn]

How would various law schools, represented by their students, perform on LOTHT?

hmm...alright, so you need a combination of brains, brawn, and cunning for this one. i'm going to say one of the southern schools might take it - UVA or Duke. they get outdoors, they're a little hardier than the complete academics at YH, or Chi especially, but they've got brains enough.

[phear_me]

Not to be the spoiler of your illusion of control, but unless you received DR status very early in the process (i.e. autoadmit) the assumption that similar batches go out at the same time is most likely erroneous. While earlier decisions are generally better than later ones, you're all just going to have to wait for your individual letter, as accept/waitlist/reject decisions are all made in the same "batches" or rounds.

Best of luck to all.

[sotomayor]

yo sneakersboy did you just get your letter today?
