Knew a guy who did that and it didn't turn out so well for him. His job absolutely ruined his health early in his career, and he ended up alienating his family and working for a massive, universally hated bureaucracy for decades. Finally stood up to his boss and reunited with his kids late in life, but by then it was too late; he passed away shortly afterward. Can't recall if it was BigLaw or the Galactic Empire, but what's the difference, really?

The Galactic Empire gives out better company cars.

I'm sorry to hear the bad news.

Are the emails trickling out or did they all come at once?

HungarianGirl13 · Post by **HungarianGirl13** » Wed Feb 11, 2015 4:08 pm

Did all these dings come through at the same time, or were the trickled in?

Lol, I'm surprised it took so long for anyone to ask. I'm trying to figure out if I'm a sitting duck. It looks like all the rejections were 171 and below.

Someone with almost my exact stats was just rejected on LSN...

Dinged via email this afternoon after seeing a wave of denials from those who applied in the fall. Submitted 12/22, Complete 1/15. No JS1. LSAT and GPA both <25; my only thread of hope was softs. Best of luck to those still hanging in there!

Just saw a rejection on LSN with a January submission date. Looks like this is a bigger wave than I thought. Getting a little nervous right about meow. Here's to hoping softs and cat power carry us through this one!

Oh no... Now I'm getting scared.

Is 5:00 EST the cutoff time? Or can they be sent later?

Finally got my Harvard email address! Accepted 2/2.

smile0751 · Post by **smile0751** » Wed Feb 11, 2015 6:19 pm

Seeing two people with my numbers who also submitted in September get dinged is really making me jumpy.

Harvard... listen to me... I submitted in SEPTEMBER. Either give me a JS1 (PLEASE?!) or just ding me already! This also goes for you, Yale and Stanford.

My essentially baseless speculation predicts a JS1 wave coming up. We've had JS2 and and reject pretty recently, and Monday's and Friday's have usually had a wave of some kind.

There were JS1s more recently than JS2s.

OK so except for a few of us hold-outs, this page is full of cats. Hilarious that this is still a "thing."

Cool story, brah.

Sorry that was mean, it was just a little out of place in this wave of rejections.

In this same boat. In my opinion, no news is good news. I think the waitlist is better than a ding so i'll hold out as long as they want me to.
