Decision made! Should I expect an email by this evening?

I mean...You'll get it when you get it. Could be now. Could be at 11:30.

Literally thirty seconds elapsed between my post and my receipt of the acceptance email... hahah I need to chill.

Invited to a PT Early Decision route? I'm 25~ LSAT 75~GPA, not sure if I'd make it in so a bit confused by the invite.

I'd say you have a good shot with an ED app, but I would t recommend it since you'd most likely get into other T14s with money.

Aren't PT and ED different?

ohhh I thought you meant you got some special ED app. there's really nothing to make of it imo. I guess you should just appreciate an expedited app!

It wasn't me, was just curious as the advice for OP is vastly different depending on whether it's a binding ED or just the PT. Take the PT, don't go ED.

Is MyLSN the go-to resource for determining how likely it is to get off of a wait-list, or are there other places with information?

That is an extremely painful read.

That is an extremely painful read.

Oh no haha, I meant painful as in the statistics were not what I wanted to see. Looks like a retake may be in order...

[Cbear2017]

So once I submit on LSAC do I just wait for Duke to send me a link? Sorry, new to the game!

What does "UR" and "UR 2" mean? Sorry if this has already been answered, I just can't find it.

[Why???]

Date change in status checked next to under review

Date change in status checked next to under review

So right now, my PT app status says:

"Current Status: Under review
Current Status Date: 11/29"

Are you saying that at some point the current status date will change and that's UR2 / I can expect to hear from DLS shortly thereafter?

I went straight from UR1 to DLS.

I've been UR since September, so I was hoping it would be soon. I will try to be patient for the next two weeks. Thank you!
