Oooh old man here. Thats when 161 was median LSAT, probably, right? I would have near considered you auto-admit 2 years ago. Sheeze. I'm screwed. haha.

I guess. I probably shouldn't be giving admissions advice (well, maybe transfer admissions advice) since I'm a bit detached from the process, but I recall having been in the situation where it said decision pending for months on end and turned out to be fine. So don't fret too soon.Barbie wrote:mistergoft wrote:161/3.8 cycle before lastBarbie wrote:Oh man!! What a wait!! What are your #s goft? PM?

Dang son. I do NOT want to wait until March. I'm about to leave work so I'll do some more trolling of the UF thread last year when I get home and maybe come up with some stats.

it looks as if the people last year who got "decision pending" in November got their acceptances in late January (around the 20th)

My status, as of 11/16, now reads, "Letter issued (5-10 days for receipt)." I hope that's a good thing! Good luck to everyone who applied this cycle!

For what it's worth, mine also says "Letter issued, (5-10 days for receipt)". Fingers crossed that this is a good letter. Just got accepted into FSU as well, so I think some big decisions will be coming soon.

We have very similar stats... do you have Florida ties? Just thought it was curious you've applied to UF FSU and Stetsonvmiller wrote:For what it's worth, mine also says "Letter issued, (5-10 days for receipt)". Fingers crossed that this is a good letter.

I'm jealous of all you auto-admits. It seems as if UF is going to screw me over for a 3.6 GPA. Can I write an addendum to them saying I had ONE bad freshman semester and the rest of my college career I have taken 16+ credits AND had a GPA of 3.8+? Or should I just suffer until they make that decision?

Same boat. First semester of freshmen year I got a little over a 3.0. Every semester since I've gotten at least a 3.7. I probably should have done an addendum, too..LSATmakesMeNeurotic wrote:I'm jealous of all you auto-admits. It seems as if UF is going to screw me over for a 3.6 GPA.

They would NOT ding you for a 3.6 unless your LSAT is... like 160 or below maybe. 3.6 is a good GPA.

I got the "Letter Sent" status ticker too. I'm outside of both 75%s, FWIW.

I'm just saying it wouldn't be BECAUSE of the GPA. A 3.6 is, what, UF's median or so?

Haha no, I know. I know my LSAT is the weight that's dragging the rest of my otherwise decent application downBarbie wrote:SixStrings11 wrote:..Barbie wrote:They would NOT ding you for a 3.6 unless your LSAT is... like 160 or below maybe. 3.6 is a good GPA.

Below Median..and yep I covered all of Florida! In at Miami though, so that's a bit of a relief!
