I'm really sorry about the dings so far. For anyone who gets dinged or JSW'd, as much as it may suck, please don't forget to update your status in the spreadsheet. It will help those waiting and future generations of TLSers.

Dinged as well. No JS 1. Lower GPA so no surprise here either. Good luck to those waiting and congratulations to those admitted. Checking out of this thread now. Best of Luck everyone.

Just saw that. Pretty scary when they don't feel the need to pick up a 172 URM

FTFY :wink:

Sorry to hear about the dings too. It might also help if you can mention the JS1 date (or if you had one).

I'm really sorry to hear that the bad news has begun. Hoping for some better news later.

Re the advice about updating the OP regarding JS1's, I'll try to compile some of that this weekend.

So at this point it looks like the dings are only going to people without JS1's — do you think that's a meaningful distinction to make?

So far it seems to be, but our sample size is pretty small at this point.

Also rejected < 25 LSAT & GPA. URM. It was a reach but still doesn't feel great after the Penn slaughter

Are these dings via phone call or email? What was the wording like?

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

Now there's a charge.
