If they are sticking to what they were doing before, it'll be via email (unless you're in Canada, in which case it'll probably be a call). I do remember some Internationals getting the good news over the phone tho from last year's thread.
Do you know if intl js2s are sprinkled in between domestic js2s or are they reserved for the end, or are on a different day altogether?

Yes I am also waiting and trying not to cry from stress
Seriously, I know I shouldn't be bummed out, but I'm pretty bummed out. Above 75th GPA, above median LSAT, complete in late Oct/JS1 early-mid Nov. At work right now trying not stress out :(
Apparently there was a big Feb wave last year that seemed to last at least 3 hours based on individuals' reports, in the late afternoon/early evening.

For those who got the JS2: did your/has your status checker changed?

FYI, according to last year's stats, there were waves two days in a row (i.e. on a Thursday and Friday of the same week).

JS2!!! LSAT > 50%, GPA > 75%

To answer previous question, it was indicated that our status checker would change shortly, I assume when they're done making calls.

Congrats to everyone hearing awesome news today!! :D :D

I swear if I got a JS2 today (I'm at work), I would definitely start crying and the attorneys I work for would feel so awkward haha.

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

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