THIS. I used to be really happy with my GPA, glad I took a bunch of harder classes/those extra minors. Alas, no longer.

Long before I applied to law school, here I was, sitting at home thinking about how a 3.63 from a rigorous school was great. HAH. The universe has since had a good laugh at my naivete.
my .01 below median gpa is making me wish i never wanted to try and learn a new language freshman year.

try being below median (by more than .01) for every single school you applied to. i just have to say thank goodness for a high lsat that will soften the blow, hopefully.

YES. Death to new languages in graded classes.

Around 7pm, this thread's gonna really get going, at which point I will have lost all hope and joined the USS Pessimism.

1. Most of the decisions so far have been to RD folks. I'm ED

2. Most of the decisions so far have been on the lower-LSAT/higher-GPA side of [what we must assume will eventually be] the distribution. I'm the oppostite.

Sigh, after all the excitement late last week, I don't know how well I'll hold up beyond the next ~1 day.

Aww. Hugs.

SADFKHAJKSDFJHKLJASDFLKJSDAHFKJADSF IN AT NYU!!!

This time last year I thought there was no way I would ever attend a Top 5 law school. I'm beside myself with excitement. If my cycle ended today I'd be perfectly satisfied. AHHHHHH

Submitted 10/3, RD, stats on LSN (in profile).

Does anyone who lives in NYC get the purple envelop today?

I didn't get one over the weekend and am afraid to be sad to check the mailbox tonight

Congrats to those who have gotten in. Has anyone in south florida heard anything? No word here...

I'm right there with you... so far it's been the latter. Definitely not feeling any motivation right now.

Yea, I'm pretty sure this just erased all motivation to study...

CONGRATS TINTIN!!! Man I am freaking out, this morning they said they hadn't sent me anything, and I sent them an email asking to send stuff to my permanent address, where I will be going on Sunday. Now I'm wondering when they're going to send something, I'm ED, so I'm hoping this means I'm in?? HEART ATTACK.

No purple envelope!

I love purple! I suppose this gives me more motivation to push through with finals.

Have any international students received their packet yet?

+1. I can't focus at all now. Especially because of the fact that I'm studying for finals at a school that, if I were to go to NYU, no one would ever have heard of.
