And from what we've seen in past years you probably wont receive a decision until at least next month :/

Last year, at least, I received an e-mail confirming I wanted my application to go under review (was waiting on score release). That was the only update after going complete prior to the decision.

Early, nice.

I told them to go ahead, scores dropped three days later, e-mailed late at night and got a quick reply the new scores were already being considered.

And now in the news.

"An Emory University law student and former military police officer who wanted to go into politics was arrested last Friday for allegedly murdering a 2-year-old foster child in her care."

Can you link to that? I'm surprised I havent heard of it.

[Maplesyrup]

oh, and the 509 is up, 25th percentile lsat to 156. everything else as expected

A bit brutal on that LSAT 25th, but a decent sized bump on the GPA 25th (3.30 to 3.45), OPs been updated, if anyone reads that thing at this point.

New poll is up, because something needs to stir the pot when we don't have a status checker. Link's in the title to a map and description of the regions.

[The Abyss]

I'm right at the border of Great Appalachia and the Deep South.

[TheProdigal]

Deep South, for myself.

Poll reposted due to OP's (product of a Southern public education) inability to properly do it the first time.

[mornincounselor]

Checking in.

[Jrr13]

I must say, I actually like that Emory doesn't provide a status check. It prevents me from checking it 2-3 times a day like all the other ones..

Which made me forgot that I even applied to this school

[bdb90]

If only Emory made decisions before January, like almost every other elite law school in the country.

Same. I put New France because we're not too far from there, but honestly it could be any of those or even El Norte.

Is it still generally considered a bad idea to go to Emory if you don't want to work in the South?

[TheProdigal]

Is it still generally considered a bad idea to go to Emory if you don't want to work in the South?

I'd generally say yes, c/o 2014 was 51.9% Georgia, 11.9% New York, 5.2% Florida. Previous years are fairly similar, with California occasionally supplanting Florida, and DC making some appearances. http://www.lstscorereports.com/schools/ ... tion/2014/

However, and this is something I came away from last year thinking -- the school-funded jobs might actually help to a certain extent. They'll work setting up a deal with an employer in your choice destination and provide what support and networking they can in the area. They also put some attention on their grads working internationally.

Anywhere in particular you were thinking about?

My goal ultimately would be NYC, DC, or Boston BigLaw. I know Boston and DC would probably be pipe dreams from Emory. But I can't really tell if the 11.9% NYC thing is because of self-selection from wanting to stay in the South/in Georgia, or because Emory degrees just aren't super portable outside the region.

For the record, I strongly object to Emory sending a promotional email with the subject line "Emory Law Admission."

But you can "rest assured that (their) lights are on, and (they) are working diligently to review (our) applications!"
