still nada... come on UW.

Yep. Very frustrating. I'm really tired of checking every hour, I wish they would just send an email telling you they reached a decision and what that decision was.

I ran by the law school again yesterday and actually got some pictures in before it was completely dark thanks to daylight savings time. The study area was still mostly empty, but perhaps people don't like studying near the glass windows.
Pictures for anyone who's bored at work and is interested:
--LinkRemoved--


I also ran to the business school, and that building (well, two buildings actually) is quite possibly the ugliest building on campus, though one of the two is being remodeled.

And like some previous pictures the cherry blossoms were in full bloom and the quad area was absolutely gorgeous.

[barrydukakis]

This is the first one that really hurt, bad. Where are you headed buddy?

I'm sure you have a good shot. I don't think any of us know what UW is looking for though! They've rejected people with pretty high numbers and accepted some with lower numbers. I think they really are being holistic (maybe?)

[ozarkhack]

nope, still IR 3/6

+1

Good Luck . In at USC is great though, I'd love to go to USC (but not as much as UW obviously) even though I hate their sports teams.

Both are great schools, I'd feel fortunate to attend either! No Pete Carrol.. we'll see where their football program fares w/o him

I see that you made this post a while back
"Having moved to Seattle from Scotland 5 months ago, I feel fairly well qualified to answer this as an outsider moving to a totally new place. I found an internship at a law firm here and have been working here for five months, while studying for the LSAT and applying to law schools. Meeting people..."

I thought your description of Seattle was apt and hilarious and reblogged in on my blog (not recently, when it was made).
