yeah, phone call
just went reserve-->brief phone interview gauging interest so no LOCI

I didn't write a LOCI because I thought I had zero chance in hell of getting in, I literally searched the past 3 years of wait lists and never saw a single person get pulled from the reserve. pretty dumb of me though because this year's cycle is different, really shoulda LOCI'd it up

Would any of those admitted from the Reserve list mind sharing their numbers? Congrats, btw. That is big deal.

Can any of you released from the Reserve list share your stats?

They both have their stats in their profiles. Reverse splitters with LSATs at or below 167. I see myself not far behind...

I don't think I agree. In fact, I would guess that people like you are the reason they were rejected. You have better numbers (and I'm sure CLS has other applicants like you), so if CLS is looking for reverse splitters later on, they know that they have you and won't be needing the people they just released.

Communicate now with those who not only know what a legal education is, but can offer you worthy advice and commentary as you complete the three most educational, yet challenging years of your law related post graduate life.

I don't know whether this is the right thread to post this question. My apologies first.
I was put on reserve back in April. I happen to be in NYC for a couple of days now, and am thinking of paying a visit to the school.
Is it OK to just stop by or it's more polite to send an email first?
plus, what's the dress code for a visit to the law school?
Thanks a lot

I'm a reverse splitter (3.85 ivy, 167) and was admitted last week...I'm also attending. So it's possible they filled that "gap".

Just got an email being put on second reserve. Anyone else?

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

Now there's a charge.
