Some people are still "Complete".

I assume the EDs that have been admitted have a different status as well.

A number of people are UCR, so is anyone in anything beyond that?
Are you asking if anyone has been dinged, admitted, WLed, or held? Because those would be the statuses that are "beyond" UCR.

Ok I see. Yeah if you are "UR2" your status checker will still say "Under Committee Review", but there will have been a date change on your status checker. So for me, the first time I went UCR, my "Current Status Date" was 11/26. Later, my Current Status Date changed to 12/8 and it still said "Under Committee Review". That date change is what everyone is calling UR2 because it presumably means that a second adcomm is looking at your application.

UR2 here, too, as of today. My UR1 was the third, so exactly two weeks. It's like reading heiroglyphics without a Rosetta stone.

Prediction that first RD decisions will come tomorrow. Thinking it may just be emails, rather than calls, considering the wording of the tweet:
First Regular Decision offers will be sent out later this week. #pennlaw

for people who are not in this week's first wave, when would the next wave come? Before the holidays or after new year? ;(
Any baseless speculations??

Looks like last year had a wave on Dec. 19 (Thursday) and then another wave on Dec. 23 (Monday)

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

Now there's a charge.
