Sorry to hear it. I assume none of the dings were Faculty Review?
I never saw faculty review. I guess I didn't show much interest in the app. Im at 75% LSAT, but I know thats not a big factor with Berkeley

I'm sorry to everyone today who was dinged, and much luck going forward. :-(

I still didn't get anything...anyone who got dinged UR 12/21 or later? PM if preferable. I'm hypothesizing that it's the earlier applicants today, and the later ones will be Next few months.

Highly doubt any of the dings are FR. I am FR and haven't heard anything. I fully expect all of us FR folks will hear on February 5th right on schedule.

I went UR 1/21 (complete 1/5), but for some reason I got a second UR email this morning. I imagine there's nothing to read into, here, but I was wondering if that happened to anyone else.

Just about had a heart attack when I saw an email from Berkeley in my inbox... A split second of hope that it was a decision!

Odds of hearing back before February 5th? My bet is some people will hear back by the 3rd at the latest.

Not that I'm even FR, but from what I've seen they really do release the results on the day they say.

I went though the past few years' threads; seems like a few people get WL'd, denied before but everyone gets accepted on the 'deadline.'

Feb 5th is the day that us in Faculty Review were told we'd get a decision by.

Thanks. So it means nothing to those of us under review?

Where did you hear that? I've been under review and didn't hear anything about a specific date.

Some of us got an email from Berkeley Law saying that we were put in faculty review and that we should be receiving a decision on or around Feb 5. There are two FR waves and I think the 2nd wave will include the December admits.

I mean decisions can come out any day for anyone. But if your application was benchmarked for Feb 5 faculty review, then you have to wait until Feb 5. There will be more faculty review invites down the line for the second wave.

Cool, thanks. I didn't get that email, but I also didn't get one about going under review. Oh well, back to blindly waiting.

Good luck to all you FRers!

Anybody else get the BLOS interview invite? This is turning my JS2 into an interesting conundrum...

Is there anyone else out there who is UR 12/21 still? I'm trying to find where all my peeps are who are in the same boat :-)

And congrats that's awesome about the BLOS invite! Let us know how it goes!!

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

Now there's a charge.
