Cheer up! All is not lost. You might come off the wait list. I don't think I will be attending, so you can have my spot.Jen Loblaw wrote:WL'd via email. Boo. This was the one that I actually thought I would end up going to.

I think I have gotten a holistic review even though according to what TLS says, I am not URM.BackToTheOldHouse wrote:thxpaulinaporizkova wrote:FTFMBackToTheOldHouse wrote:Liar. Berkeley.paulinaporizkova wrote:

I have gotten into 4 schools ranked T14-T22, and 2 waitlists above the T14 level.
Have faith everyone. I think they do provide a holistic review.

Re: Minnesota 2011
if your GPA was that high and your LSAT was anywhere near the 25th of a T14, you have the numbers for T14-T22 and T14 waitlists and were not a holistic review. just sayin'masterthearts wrote:

I'm not exactly understanding your statement. But, yes, the gpa was that high (from an Ivy), and lsat was at or below the 25th for the schools I got into ranked T14-T22. But, the extracurrics and PS were awesome in my humble opinion.paulinaporizkova wrote:if your GPA was that high and your LSAT was anywhere near the 25th of a T14, you have the numbers for T14-T22 and T14 waitlists and were not a holistic review. just sayin'masterthearts wrote:

The apps don't have any check boxes for "URM." I checked off the complete truth. "White" and "other Hispanic". I checked both boxes.JenDarby wrote:TLS saying you are not a URM doesn't mean anything. What did you check on your applications?masterthearts wrote:

It's getting to be a serious problem for me. I'm hoping It'll get better once I get my first decision. Or once I commit somewhere. Or once I graduate law school.

So exactly how many people are withdrawing or have withdrawn their MN applications at this point? And, if you've withdrawn, which school(s) is (/are) your top choice(s)?
