Yea, a lot of fun, great weather and atmosphere. But honestly, weekend watching netflix has me pretty jelly- that was prob just as fun.

I congratulate you for this wise and estimable decision and wish you great happiness in your endeavor.

I did this all while listening to A$AP Rocky and eating butterfingers... Choking back tears over my lack of 170lsat/3.9gpa

Hopefully my wise endeavor is estimable as hell.

Is a "Why UVA" essay strongly encouraged?

From what I understand UVA has a bit of a YP reputation so it can't hurt.
Besides, there's so much to say about UVA!

I'm just worried it may come off as insincere since I haven't visited since undergrad and will be pulling this from the internet

Not sure what your numbers are, but if they are really strong I think for UVA a why essay would be very well advised. You only get one shot to, so make it damn good. Even though everything you will use is mostly online, try to package it so that it doesn't sound like you are just reading the website but that it is linked with your personal goals and all that jazz.

Anybody heard from UVA in the last 2/3 weeks about interviews? Went UR 10/8 and wondering if i missed out on the quick turn arounds/they are just busy with admissions fairs and such, or if this is a bad sign for my app. Numbers should be competitive but I didn't write a why so wondering if that is hurting me

Check the spreadsheet
Looks like there have only been a handful of interviews since you went UR.

Awesome, thanks. Didn't realize all that info was on them. Looks like only one person, that makes me fee better.

By the way, thanks for working on the spreadsheets!
