Sadly, yes, I am still "Ready for Review" as of 01/12/10.

Hopefully, I will be In Review soon. I just hope that there will still be acceptance slots available when I go into review.

Does anyone agree being In Review for a short period means bad news? Or is there no rhyme or reason to how long the adcomms review one's apps?

I'm going off memory here, so I could be wrong, but I believe someone went IR on 2/22, decision on 2/26, and then got their acceptance by 3/5. I would say short just means practically auto accept or reject?

Wow WashU is taking FOREVER to get back to me. I got an auto-admit from comparably ranked, and even more highly ranked schools, most with $$.

What the hell?

You mean U of Wash...Wash U is in STL. Both fine schools in fine cities. Just want to make sure you are in the right place

But of course. The one in Seattle. I applied to them first and I may hear from them last.

As discussed before on this thread, UW can be oddly particular about who and when they decide to review apps. Though since you're a splitter, things would be random as to when they send a decision out.

Per LSN: an applicant from rural Wisconsin with a 3.5/175 got dinged

So much for my hopes that my midwestern charm may win the adcomms over.

I'm starting to feel like I am this guy in the eyes of the U-Dub adcomm.

I just hope I can beat the gong too.

It is really strange how slow they are moving this year. I think last year they had made almost all of the decisions by now, they mostly came in big waves in February. It seems like just a slow trickle this year.

Good luck to everyone still waiting!

New dean, new admissions staff.
It seems strange that Neelio wasn't an auto-accept in my mind. 165 3.88, decent/good softs plus a visit to UW? Seems like auto-admit to me.

Do they really keep track about who visits a school? If so does it really make any difference? I visited U-Dub way back in the beginning of October. A few days before I visited Seattle U....got rewarded with a wailtist despite being above the 75th percentile in both LSAT and GPA.

Obviously a computer did something to this picture but it's still pretty nonetheless.

Don't see your LSAT, but your GPA in your profile is higher than mine.
Good Luck!!!

There seem to be a lot of 75% LSAT accepted recently. I'm not sure if this should give me hope, or if it should make me worried since perhaps they'll fill their top 25% LSAT quota and start looking for more GPA oriented applicants.

I don't know if I would look too much into stuff like that. If anything you'll just drive yourself crazy

With your numbers + in-state status, I think your chances of admission look pretty good.
Best of luck!!!
