I rmr an email from Chicago saying that we shouldn't update our application unless it pertains to C&F issues. Does this mean a LOCI would be a bad idea or is it just referring to substantive updates like LORs?

Well, if you're an RD app, then a LOCI before there's been no RD movement whatsoever wouldn't make much sense, would it? I would think that'd be more of a concern in March or so.

I applied RD in September and didn't get an interview invite until January and ended up being admitted in the first wave on the 23rd. So I wouldn't worry if you applied early but still haven't been asked to interview.

Congrats! The best advice that I can give is to read this http://www.top-law-schools.com/forums/v ... 2&t=200887 if you haven't already. Feel free to PM me if you have any specific questions about the interview, but this thread really should cover all your bases.

Good luck!

I emailed them Sunday to ask if they could hold my app till my Feb scores were out. But the woman told me unfortunately my app is complete and is currently under final review.

I checked my online checker and the under review date changed to Saturday the 4th. Second under review change.
Sucks they're judging with my current numbers. Praying I get an interview. If so, I'd rock it out and for sure get in.

But hey, if I really sucked, I'm sure they would have already rejected me...right? Anyway, hoping for minimum waitlist. That would definitely work in my favor.

Alright, toodles lolol

Reporting back from a what I though was a great interview :D
A huge thank you to TLS (Regulus and charlie.blak especially) for helping me be prepared for all the interview questions.
Now phase two of waiting begins! Feel free to PM me with questions about the interview.

just submitted last night and I realized today that I didn't put hours worked on my resume. I hope that's not an auto-ding :(

you'll be fine. The committee considers a lot more factors than that. If you're good for U of C, you'll get an interview.
