Also in some thread (this one maybe?) I posted info on how to do pro Skype lighting on the cheap. I'll try to dig that up.

Checking in. Sort of. I've been creeping for a while. Got my JS2 around 12:00 today. I've been combing through posts and agonizing over my chances enough that I figured I'd add to the mayhem.

Complete: 11/14
JS1 Request: 11/26
JS1: 12/10
JS2: 12/19

GPA: 51-74th
LSAT: 50th
Extras: TFA, 3 yrs WE, bilingual (English, Mandarin)

Woot!

Sent in grade updates that push me a little closer to competitive on the GPA front. Hoping against hope that I can steal a JS1.

Perhaps she is calling by complete dates, not JS1 dates?

Is there a precedent for JS2s going out three days in a row this early in the cycle?

Checking in after lurking under separate cover for quite some time. I submitted last week and went complete early this week. Finally took the plunge and decided to apply this year. Hoping my late application doesn't hurt me too much. >75 GPA, <50 LSAT.

Good luck to everyone!
