[beleaguer]

i have this on my status checker too kind of nerve-wracking. i wish they'd do that AFTER they send the email! i strongly regret checking..

[eskimogirl]

thanks, i appreciate the optimism in number of $ signs

[Deuce]

With your numbers, it's a loooot closer to realism than optimism

I got mine around 4:45 yesterday (status changed to Decision Made at about 2:00) but some decisions have been coming later at night - think 9pm or later.

I have to admit, when I read TLS sometimes, I wonder about people with solid to great numbers worrying about hearing back from law schools, especially if they want to go into BigLaw. If you get anxious, stressed out, and/or have to refresh your status checker a billion times a day now, just imagine how your future career is going to make you feel. This is doubly true when you think about how anyone entering the corporate world (or similar environments) has to learn to deal with at least occasional failure and rejection. It's part of the job.

Don't beleaguer yourself with worries--you've got excellent numbers and money in the bank as far as Duke is concerned.

^nice

(though I don't actually plan for biglaw) I'm actually not stressed out and have yet to refresh anything. I'm just terribly impatient and hate waiting for things! Also, LSAT score does not 'good numbers' make, in my case, which is why I'm slightly more worried. But thanks for the advice/encouragement!

I was hoping to also use "mrmangs" somewhere, but your username doesn't lend itself to insertion as well as mine.

[mrmangs]

Ah, I didn't realize you were a splitter. Well, people who do fall under my comment, you know who you are! Feel bad now!

Good luck with your app! I'm sure you'll get into some great schools!

And to be perfectly honest, I mutter "mrmangs" under my breath all the time, almost always with a silly accent. Feel free to throw it into your sentences at any point and time, whether it makes sense or not.

[beleaguer]

excellent. will DEFINITELY do that from now on

[Dany]

bee, what's your gpa?

^ that's your new nickname because "beleaguer" is too long.

yeah it's difficult to type AND say..not sure what i was thinking when i picked it. i think NR and a couple others shortened it to bel, but bee's fine! my gpa's a 3.6. not much of a splitter I guess, but still below pretty much all medians and a good amount of 25 percentiles!

and i'm IN at duke!! good luck if it hasn't come yet, al2546!

it has been 10 days, still under view.
WHY Is this a super bad sign?

I got my decision close to 6pm PST... of course, it was a PR, so probably not what you're looking for, but I have heard of many people getting in late at night.

Thank you. Law school app requires a strong heart. Waiting is really painful.

Hope it will be worth the wait.
