The first day of the last full week of March starts on the C/O 2017 thread's page 405:
http://www.top-law-schools.com/forums/v ... tart=10100

We're only on page 205. Are we underachievers compared to last year?

Also, the C/O 2015 thread's last week in March had 46 pages of posts (405-451):
http://www.top-law-schools.com/forums/v ... tart=11250

What's going on here? Is it TLS? Decreased applications? Or are we posting failures?

We're clearly just a less neurotic bunch :p

It could just be because they admitted a larger number of applicants much earlier in the cycle last year?

50% less neurotic?

[Harvette]

Can't... This waiting

[Oskosh]

I was actually wondering about the thread size myself.

[wheresthethesis]

We're underperforming

[Oskosh]

That's probably it, too. It could also be that the admitted students in the previous thread were more supportive of the applicants who had not received a JS1/JS2. But really, that alone would not account for 200 pages. Clearly we are underperforming.

I am always happy to do my duty and shitpoast in the name of filling up pages. Anyone want to vote for a new thread mascot? Down with cats etc?

[Indifference]

Maybe a new poll would liven things up? I dunno. Been pretty dead in here since the last big JS2 wave.

Also as for mascots, I vote for bushbabies.

I was going to suggest we shitpost too. I missed out on the September 2015 waiters thread due to cowardice/bewilderment but now I want the honor and the privilege of being lounged (from the Harvard thread no less) by the Mods.

Also, I've been reading through last year and there was a HUGE WL wave this week. Started trickling out Wednesday and Thursday before reaching a high-water mark Friday. Almost no JS2s. But I don't know if we can extrapolate from historical performance...

[thequeen]

I haven't been on on a while. what's the consensus here? any way we're going to see some JS2's that pick up on stragglers still waiting on JS2's after JS1's in Oct/Nov/Dec/Jan?

or are all of them (us) destined for WL?

I second the poll idea.

How about predictions on the next date for JS2.

I am betting on March 26. Here's indisputable proof why:

[MajinBuu]

Looks like today is the last day for pre-waitlist JS1s

I predict JS2s will happen late this week/ early next week ahead of waitlist.

You are right about 3/26, but your methodology is a bunch of hocus pocus. I can't believe you believe that nonsense! Go with the science, you dingbat:

Right fibula or bust - I WILL successfully complete what I set out to achieve.

i think this is a good guess. wouldn't be surprised if there were two waves -- the imperfect methodology of the HLS FB page has been belabored half a dozen times, but i do think it's telling that there are still under 400 members

It could also be that the admitted students in the previous thread were more supportive of the applicants who had not received a JS1/JS2.

Some of us admits still lurk on the applicant thread and cheer for you all!! I just don't want to prance around with my laurel admit crown while so many are still hoping. But since you asked for it..

LET'S *clap* GET *clap* A LITTLE BIT ROWDY *holds up giant cat banner for applicants to run through*

This felt good. Let's do more of this.

Good to know we're being watched.

How are we all coping with the waiting (other than being on this forum)?

I'm anxiously overeating/drinking/gaming and just in general letting myself go. Between waiting on this (which feels like a longshot) and on aid from other schools my nerves are pretty damn frayed.

And I swear to god if one more person asks me where I'm going next year....

Honestly I'm just operating under the assumption of a WL/ding and I pass the time by doing research about other schools I've gotten into. It's fun to plan out an imaginary happy life somewhere I know is an option, and it's easy to get excited about that and forget about HLS in the immediate.

I didn't get a call in the first wave after my JS1 and was a wreck - there comes a point when the anxiety is just too exhausting.

I only applied because I saved enough in fee waivers to justify the $100 ticket. My mindset was (and still is) that I'm not getting in (splitter). I was shocked and honored by the JS1 but the stress has been manageable until these past few weeks.

Now I just want to know so I can get on with my life.

ya for me working out has been the best way to clear my mind of application-related thoughts

If that was directed at me, yeah, I got it. Hence the reply.......

[TLS2018]

Just had JS1, and the interviewer said that HLS is aiming to have all decisions made by April 1st, which I guess includes today's JS1s. Good luck everyone!
