There's gotta be a couple. I had some 173-4 / 3.9 friends rejected from Boalt during my cycle. I don't think they applied to SLS but they are at Harvard now.

I just started writing a "Why Berk?" Essay I can hopefully send them to attach to my file. I don't think my PS was adequate and these bloodbaths are making me scared.

My first rejection so far, and yes, first always hurts :(
I knew it coming (I have dismal GPA), but still Berkeley, I believed when you said holistic review...

Congratulations to those admitted! With that kind of weather you guys can never be too stressed. So jealous!

I've always thought Berkeley was like my cool older brother, but I designed my application this cycle for Stanford. We will see if that pays off.

sorry to all the dings :cry: I'm sure mine is coming soon.

In the meantime.. here's to hoping that those of us who have had radio silence since we went UR will have a status change to FR

First ding of the season. Extreme splitter with GPA < 3.3, so to be expected.

Still, it was sweet while it lasted.

And IIIIIIIIIIIII will always love youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

UR 12/5

No FR

No ding yet.

Now I'm getting confused. They don't WL people without sending them through FR, right?

I am confused.

Were there any dings for any UR's from November?

Maybe were just in another pile?

EDIT: Saw some previous posts. Were most of the dings FR though or ones that never changed from UR?

Maybe we should start our own Princeton Law thread for the Forgotten... Perhaps we can call it UCSF Law c/o 2016?

(UR since 11/21 here, no FR)

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

Now there's a charge.
