I was about the opposite, stats on profile. I had stellar softs though and we talked about those in my interview, with no mention of my hards, and I am URM - so take it as you will. Good luck!

Additionally, if you /absolutely must know/ when decisions are going out, do follow them on Twitter. They don't update it often, but it does coincide with action (except for ED, apparently).

Thanks for the info - and congrats! I fully expect a ding so it will be a nice surprise if I end up with something else.

Are there any numbers on about what % of interviewees get accepted?

K I was wondering if I was going crazy.

Actually, on that subject - do you guys have your W-2s/tax info for this year, or are you filing without?

Aren't you only required to provide your tax returns and not a W-2?

I thought you needed to do your taxes before you file FAFSA. I've never filed, so I'm genuinely curious.

So if I understand correctly, you can file with the prior year's, but then you have to go back once you've filed your current-year returns and revise.

For any of it, I feel like I need my W-2, so... waiting.

Generally they bleed into each other. Waiters post on the c/o forums to ask questions from those admitted. Those admitted post here because its a wider audience.

Checking in, Chicago is pretty much the only market where I have significant ties, so fingers crossed. LSAT at median, 25%<GPA<50%

Recently accepted RD. Has anyone else noticed the "glass menagerie photo" in the requirements list on the status checker?

What does that even mean?

The Glass Menagerie appears to be a publication; you're expected to submit your photo to be presented in it in the event that you matriculate.

I think it's neat. : )

No one knows what it means, but it's provocative.

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

Now there's a charge.
Just kidding ... it's still FREE!
