Congrats! Any chance you can post when the email was sent? I ask because I don't know if they come out in one batch or throughout the day/week.

haha, losing faith pretty quickly considering I sent the app in like 20 mins after it opened. It would've taken some serious quasi-URM love or something special to push me over the top, especially for this first batch. Fact is, you guys are well on your way to being Harvard men and women soon. Badass.

Happy for all those that got their interviews!!

I have a question though, for those who submitted later (after the Oct Lsat was released but before halloween), does this mean that we missed the first batch and have to wait till next year (or after thanksgiving). I'm not sure if anyone can answer this but if anyone has an opinion i'll love to hear it! Thanks

Last year, plenty of people submitted in late October or early November and still got admitted before New Years.

I'm in same boat as you. Another question...what percentage of all applicants register on LSN? If LSN says 200 have applied to HLS so far, how many does that really mean? I know about 7000 apply to HLS annually, but all 7K will not appear on LSN.

Congrats guys!!! I am now unbelievably anxious about getting an email soon, since kulshan and I are numbers twins (may be a good experiment to see how much softs matter/if I really screwed up my application :? )

Isn't this something you can easily figure out from the website?

Only the crude total. Say 700 show on LSN by end of year, I know 1/10 appear on LSN. But it may not be a uniform rate. Perhaps all 200 who apply to HLS by today appear on LSN. Hence, I was wondering if anyone had a finer-grained idea.

They seem to be taking "reverse splitters" and auto-admits right now...everyone has a 3.8+ GPA, but LSATs are all over the place. Interesting to note.

I wonder if MumofCad got one yet?
