Its a little depressing that 1400-1600 people get sent to FR and only 200 are accepted...

Where did you get this info? Also are acceptances by email or phone call?

I read this somewhere too, but I can't remember. It may have actually been TLS or Boalt's website. And I believe acceptances are by both, some phone calls but not everyone and everyone gets an email.

I got that info on tls profile of boalt/ interview of dean tom

Oh yeah, forgot we are supposed to hear back by the 12th. That's good to know...hoping for good news, but I already have a lot of great choices that I am grateful for, so I won't be totally crushed if I don't get in. I just regret not applying earlier.

I will be totally crushed. No joke.

Berkeley is my dream. Nothing to do now but wait for Friday's bloodbath and see who is left standing...

So... it's Tuesday. I'm getting antsy. When do we start the drumroll?

My guess is that some good news phone calls will arrive tomorrow afternoon/evening and a whole bunch of e-mails saying yay/nay/maybe will come on Thursday. But I am guessing and full of wishful thinking.

Is this the last FR and will Boalt be done with all decisions after Friday?

[zarathustra]

got the call today! I'm in! Fuculty Review isn't so bad after all. Good luck to the rest of you.

A previous post has him in at Columbia, so I'm guessing rather good...

@ Zarathustra: Will you be taking that Columbia acceptance and withdrawing from Boalt?

Last year they posted no new decisions (other than waitlist movement) after 3/15. So I would guess so.

No news here yet. In February there were a few admits the day before the big wave and then a bunch of admits/waitlists/rejections the next day. Presumably, a few faculty groups finished early.

I have to stay off of this forum for the sake of my mental health but I just can't...

I feel like a little kid flinching just before getting spanked. C'mon Berkeley! Show me some love that isn't tough.

Wishing you the best of luck, let me know about your progress.

Eh I've felt like that ever since I applied.

I've felt like that even before I applied since everyone I know has told me not to even bothering applying because I'm going to be rejected.

Yesterday someone told me they would slit their wrists if I got in. Sooo not encouraging at all...

I just want it over with...all of this waiting is killing me.

yeah, i don't know if waitlisted or rejected would be worse. i think waitlisted. i just want closure now that my dream is dead, so i can move on with my life and stop dreaming about this school.

i've actually only heard back from 4 schools and i'm pleased with my options already
