The dude is TTTrolling. Calls don't go out at 11pm on a Saturday night. For one thing, I'm sure Dean Tom has better things to do at that hour than call 0Ls--like chill with his bros and/or watch ESPN

Anyone think we might get notified today or do we have reason to believe it'll be after Thanksgiving? I know Dean Tom was realllyyyyyyyyy busy having phone sex with that chick at freakin 10:30 PM on Saturday but considering that phone call didn't even take place maybe he'll have time to call some of us! Some of our applications have been under review for at least a month and UVA notified applicants super early sooo Berkeley pleaseee step on it.

+1 When I got to the "busy having phone sex" part I did a double take and just burst into laughter.

Seriously though. Who calls someone at 10:30 PM on a Saturday unless it's a booty call....

I can't believe I fell for that crap for even one second.

Why can't Berkeley drop a little hint on Twitter like they did last year? I would really like to be thankful for some pre-Thanksgiving phone calls THIS year....

Seriously.....not knowing at all sucks. However, last year they called around 4 PM Pacific time...so we could definitely still hear today!

Does anyone know if their status checker changes from "complete"? Or does it just stay there until a decision is made?

Gracias

It normally goes from "complete" to "under review" and then supposedly changes again once a decision has been announced.

Congrats! I'm gonna freak out every time my phone rings for the next 2-3 hours, though I know none of them will be Berkeley since I'm not going to get accepted.

People who are getting calls...

When did you submit and what time zone are you? Eastern? Western?

ScrabbleChamp · Post by **ScrabbleChamp** » Mon Nov 21, 2011 6:35 pm

Where's my call, Berkeley? I'm waiting...

Congrats to you, and to Warrior as well! Very amazing, you both should be very excited.

Curious1 - I am really intrigued by your GPA. It's within Berkeley's median (I think?) and your LSAT is superb, but Berkeley is totally unpredictable when it comes to admissions below... well below anything, but especially at ~3.7.

I have a similar GPA and a similar LSAT, but had written off Berkeley as a waitlist --> ding (though I still applied... albeit later than you did).

Did you have a Berkeley specific PS (or at least one that was noticeably longer than 2 pages)? Are you a CA resident?
