Ah, congrats on the movement! What's your complete date?
I was one of the early completes; I submitted 10/31, complete 11/09, interview 11/20.
You gave me a glimmer of hope and DECISION MAILED! Last complete was 11/07...wow

Basically all of you will have decisions before I'm even under review. No one to commiserate with...
I applied jan. 9 so you can commiserate with me while everyone else gets dinged, wait listed or whatever. They'll probably be a few acceptances too before they even get around to looking at ours. Do you got a good excuse for being late to the party like me or am I the only one who realized I could shave a year off my undergrad by scheduling myself to death with the unhappy side-effect of realizing I'd have start applying to law schools NOW.
Oh, jeez, sorry that you had to kick it in gear so quickly. Better early January than February, I guess. I was waiting on my December LSAT score--and got trolled by LSAC with the longest wait EVER.

Good luck!

Good question. I'm pretty much an auto-reject (below both medians and not URM)... They can just pull the trigger already. I've emotionally prepared already haha

Yeah I called them 3 times today and finally gave up and left a message. Someone from Admissions called me back within the hour to help me. I think they might be getting an influx of calls or are trying to pre-screen calls or something.

Just from perusing LSN, it seems that there are quite a few people who share y'all's (hmmm, wonder what part of the country I'm from...) completion date and are still waiting for news. Last year there were people who didn't hear back until early February/March, so maybe this is normal?

I hope you hear something soon, though!

I got the Decision Mailed notice for 1/23, went complete mid December. I'm in the Midwest, so what's the usual time it takes for the letter or box to actually arrive?

It seems like they ship it out so you get it two or three days after the Decision Mailed date. Do you mind if I ask your numbers out of curiosity?

Hopefully not much longer, my anxiety is peaking. If there was a country called the United States of Neurotica, I would be elected leader with a unanimous vote.

I'm between the 25th and median for GPA, well over the 75th for LSAT

Seriously? What are you waiting for?
