I only meant that your post was funny enough for that link. Very sorry about the WL! Are you planning on sending in a LOCI?

WL today via email. UR2 12/17 and wrote a Why Penn. Out of my top five or six choices, Philly is one of the least likely destinations for me, plus I already have some other great options. Still, the more I learned about Penn Law, the more I liked it. I will soon decide whether or not to write a LOCI or withdraw. PM if you want more info/stats.

Most importantly, congrats to those admitted today!

It almost seems as if they take the high-quality end of their pool and WL much of it, expecting us to come back if we have a bad cycle and are likely to accept the offer; of course, this is me applying that fixed GPA-LSAT-WE paradigm to the whole mess...

Fortunately, it looks like many CCN decisions will be out before the WL enrollment deadline swings around; may make it easier for some of us to decide.

Should have answered the phone and told them that you were driving and to keep it short. ><

What's the logic behind waitlisting over 300 people when they only anticipate accepting 20 or so? It almost seems they're using it as a soft rejection.

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

Now there's a charge.
