I would greatly appreciate a JR1 tomorrow. I have been waiting but a mere five and half months.

+1 to this. Harvard is the last school I have to hear from, and I want this cycle to be over one way or another. I want my life back

I just kind of want to get my first ding outta the way. Harvard would be an ideal candidate. I don't know why they wait so long to do it.

karakot, if we both get into harvard let's be roommates and i will share my dragon ball z stuff with you

I was planning on leaving it at my house, but if we both end up there I can bring it all up and we can room together. We would have the best.. place..ever!!

[puppleberry finn]

wow, H thread is getting snarky. too many months of waiting finally getting to everyone?

[Unitas]

Writing the main points of my LOCI right now, should I include that at the midway point of the semester my lowest grade of six three hour classes is a 99? Not sure if it is worth mentioning, but it would appear I will have another 4.0 semester. Would it even matter?

that's a weird way of putting it, but I can't imagine it would hurt to say, "based on current grades and midterms, I anticipate earning a 4.0 this semester, bringing my GPA up to X" if you are on the low side for their GPA.

I was just putting it on a bullet list right now, not yet in form for the letter. Thanks for the advice, I will put it in my letter later on.

Yeah, the wait for Harvard must be killing you given that [strike]you haven't gotten into either Ya[/strike]... wait, you've gotten into Yale & Stanford.

yeah i would give up my firstborn child to have your cycle, bio....really

Still no JR2, so we can continue being sad for ourselves.

HOWEVER, if you look back at last year's cycle, there was a large gap in acceptances between February 11 and March 3, and again between March 6 and 19. Then a whole slew of rejections (and a few acceptances) throughout the end of March.

So, assuming that the best course of action for a new guy like JR is to follow his predecessors, maybe the machine gun fun will begin in 3 weeks.

Hopefully so. I'm sure I'm with you all on this - it is becoming such a pain to keep waiting for any news from HLS. I am contemplating even sending another letter of interest in because I figure I can update them - mainly because its been so long since my first!

Maybe this is a trick which the adcomm mercifully uses to make any rejections feel better: "well at least this damn wait is finally over! I'm happy!"

Seeing your cycle mentioned, I find it funny HLS is the last you are hearing from.

I'd expect anyone who gets into YLS and SLS to be admitted to HLS first!

Y and S are more soft focused.

His numbers are below HLS's GPA median and roughly at the LSAT median, not to mention this cycle's weirdness.

What is surprising is (as far as I can tell) he hasn't gotten a JR1... *adds another person to the hope chain*

[MagicallyDelicious]

I'm also impatiently awaiting my (hopefully) upcoming JR1...I got held and then retook in Feb., and got a score that was either Yale or Harvard's 75th ( ), so I'm thinking I should be good for a JR1...but it is late in the cycle...does the fact that it's March significantly hurt my chances?

P.S. My gpa is a high 3.8X

[somewhatwayward]

what's your gpa?

High 3.8x. Edited my post to include this.

Ain't got nothin' on the Yale thread.

The Yale thread has devolved into a thread of random conversations.

Yes, I know that I've been blessed this cycle. I also know that my cycle is essentially over. I just want closure from Harvard, a school that I applied to in mid September. I'm pretty sure I'm headed for the WL, but I'd like to know what's happening.

I'm playing the world's smallest violin for you my brother.

I think we should all start a thread called: "Closure for TLS' finest: a quest for perfection"

You can mod the thread

BioE didn't get into Harvard! BioE didn't get into Harvard!
