I really liked Stanford's rejection. It said something about being reassured that most of their applicants are qualified enough to be attending top law schools elsewhere.ilovemulch wrote:+1 haha yes.

Thanks for letting me know that your process is perfect and only selects the very best, and that I was clearly not one of them. At least Y and S were nice and said some generic thing about having a lot of qualified applicants and limited number of spots.aliarrow wrote:I got rejected yesterday, but they sent me another rejection today.
Assholes.

Heh, luckily I'll have two rejections to frame next to my acceptance when I transfer*.vanwinkle wrote: Funny, they're fine with sending rejections by E-mail. And it can work both ways. When they rejected me, I told them to send me a letter.![]()
(That rejection letter was good motivation for me, and now I have a rejection and an acceptance letter from Harvard. One of these days, I'll get off my lazy butt and get them framed so I can display them together.)
*Not that I intend to transfer, it is understood there is a 99% chance this won't happen. This statement solely constitutes sarcasm thinly veiling a hope that I do perform well enough to transfer.

1) How many people are still left that haven't heard anything, i.e no hold or WL?
2) This is probably bad news, right?

Haha, I may be optimistic, but I am still realistic.
I don't think you would care about the deposit if you get a JR1/2 so the point is moot.
