Now that everything is pretty much over, what are your thoughts on Stanford Law?

Umm, it's the best fucking school in the entire goddamned world. I will be there this fall and am personally just grateful that I get to post in the C/O 2019 thread, where we actually have a real OP in fliptrip. Eat caca and die, Dcc617. Your parents hate you.

It's chill bro, but I was already set on Harvard or Yale anyway. I got my shades on to block out all that shade from CA. Enjoy the earthquakes, hippies.

I personally can't stand Stanford, its administration, and especially its admissions office. I waited patiently for 4-7 months only to get waitlisted or rejected less than a week before May. Seriously, go home Stanford, you're drunk (unless you accept me off the waitlist, then I will love you)

Meh, I mean, this was a total long shot for me. I just wanted to see what would happen. This is what I thought would happen.

I'm totally indifferent to Stanford, because I am super happy with the option I am going with. Grow up, Dcc617. You're embarrassing yourself with this poll.

I will be Seymour Asses from Futurama, and Stanford is my Fry. DO YOU KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS? I WILL FUCKING DIE ON THE WAITLIST!

I am a lurker. I may not have even applied anywhere this cycle. My motives for lurking this thread are entirely inscrutable and apparently I have nothing better to do with my life.

Dcc617, stop making every other poll option about yourself. While you are very handsome, your constant narcissism and self-indulgence has become off-putting.

Same but I'm worried DLS may be a multiple wave per day thing since it's so early

I told them I was a felon (I am not) and I remain under review; if that doesn't scream "black box" I don't know what does.
I honestly do wish you the best of luck, but that story makes me laugh out loud every time I read it

I've slipped through the cracks as well.
Also: I just realized I left a part-time job at a law firm off of my employment section, do you guys think it's worth sending an email update or should I just let it be? It's on my resume, just not on the actual application.

TBH I don't think that will be the make or break for your application, so I wouldn't worry.

She did say in her blog that you're allowed to freak out, as long as you don't say "I'm eating lunch, can I call you back?"

Haha congrats!

So if you were passed up, you're guaranteed to be either a WL or a reject? There is no admitting these people?

Ok, in my freaking out I mixed up my review dates. The 1/15 was for Berkeley. I went UR at Stanford on 12/12. Also, I wrote a Why Stanford addendum and had one Stanford-specific recommendation, which I guess was what pushed me over the edge given that I had a coin flip's chance based on my stats. Also, my status checker still says "under review."

is "under review" the same thing as "Your file has been submitted for review." Or is there another step i haven't even gotten to yet...

That's an interesting question.. my status checker says "your file has been submitted for review" but I don't check it frequently enough to know if it changed.
I check mine obsessively. It's only ever been "your file has been submitted for review." Saying UR is just easier.

I mistakenly read "same thing" as "same question" or something in the vein. But A+ for once again having the answer to every question under the sun. :lol:
Maybe you should have asked him whether you are a felon before sending in your app. (Jokes.)

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

Now there's a charge.
