no, I think 160 is their 25th, but when they say their 75th is a 165 on their website, I think that is far off, considering lots of people with 165-172's use Temple as a safety, and most of the time get better offers.

And you guys who live near campus, why not just show up if you want? You are an accepted student now, I am sure they won't feel like you are hassling them.

Good call. To be honest I really wouldn't be surprised if it still took two weeks to arrive
This might be spot on. Almost a week later and nothin...and I live just outside Philly. Have no idea why the packet hasn't come yet.

I know it sounds rebellious, but you could walk into that admissions office, say hello, my name is..., I was just accepted, can you tell me what my scholarship is?
I know, its a million to one shot, but you might be able to pull it off.

Hmm. I bet LSAC is based on matrics while Temple is basing it on acceptances.

How fast does Temple's admission process move? I applied on the 7th and have been sitting at complete for over two weeks. I sure hope it's nothing like Villanova's...

I think it's somewhat arbitrary. I applied mid-November and still haven't hit my second complete.

Today marks 3 months for me and people with my numbers who applied later have already gotten in. I really have NO CLUE how they make their decisions. If they are going to waitlist me then I wish they'd do it already.

Yeah. I'm kind of confused. According to last year's LSN it doesn't seem like Temple YPs at all so I don't really understand why they insist on ignoring my application.

Edit: No longer confused. Just admitted via status checker 3.59/170 in state. Applied 11/18
