I predict first JS1's on October 21 and first JS2's on November 24
for no particular reason but to be able to say "I totally predicted this in EARLY AUGUST" on the off chance I'm right

I can't believe this thread has already started. Has been a year?!? Good luck everyone, as this time last year I could only have dreamed of getting into HLS. Keep hope alive! Feel free to PM me if you have any questions. I don't know how fast I will be able to get back to you but I am happy to do what I can. HERE. WE. GO!

(I am very glad to see JSW won out and will be made official by virtue of this thread, btw)

+1 to the bolded.

P.S. Shouldn't job opportunities/employment be included on the poll?

xylocarp · Post by **xylocarp** » Mon Aug 04, 2014 4:20 pm

Specs, I figured that should be everyone's favorite thing so I just put (other than employment stats) in the question

Thanks for the offer and congrats on Harvard!!

I was about to type all of this, almost exactly verbatim, but my numbers twin from last cycle beat me to it.

Anyway, a hearty second to the above! Seriously, keep hope alive- you never know where you might end up next year. Good luck, and stay sane*!

*Or at least try.

If you take the test more than once, all scores will be received but we will use the highest score in our evaluation."

Woo!

I'm sure that's what they've been doing for years.

Yeah- i don't think any schools can afford to average anymore. Even though NYU's site still says they average...

They're only required to report the highest LSAT, and that's all that matters, no matter what they say.

Does that extend to YHS/T6 though? Or just for law schools in general. I remember reading somewhere that the outlook for top tier schools is getting better

We'll get a rough indication of how HYS/T6 have continued to fare once the medians for the current cycle are released.
