TLS c/o 2020 - In #Squad We Trust Forum

[govlife]

PSA: Please make sure your cycle in Law School Numbers is 2016-7 so that we can all conveniently stalk your #journey

Any ideas on how to change it from 2015-2016? When I registered 2016-2017 still wasn't an option.

it's in settings rather than 'my profile'

Thanks! Found it right after I posted, guess I gave up too quickly. Done!

I literally can't stand the class I'm about to go to. No content whatsoever.

The average for the take-home exam in my Middle Eastern Politics class was a 72 (100 for me). Our professor even gave us 90 percent of the test, 2 weeks in advance to give us ample time to prepare for the essays lmao. College is literally telling me to just do other stuff

I wish Rand was president

Really curious as to whether anyone has not gotten into a school because of the shit they do on here and adcomms somehow finding out its them.

Well, when you make your LSN username the same as your TLS username, you're opening yourself up to easily being figured out by Adcoms.

I used to worry about this, but then I realized that there's really nothing wrong with them knowing who you are so long as you aren't a jerk on here and keep in mind that adcoms may be able to figure out who you are when you're posting. Don't be a dick, don't be stupid, not that hard. If anything, figuring out my identity on here might be a good thing for my apps as I mostly just try to help other people looking for info.

Yeah, I don't mind them knowing either. I've been posting under the assumption admissions folks read this forum.

I treat pretty much all social media (including this) the same way. I try not to say anything too controversial and keep pretty chill. I know a couple of people that have lost their jobs / been reprimanded for things they've said / posted on Facebook or Twitter. Its really just not worth it, even if you have an account that you think is anonymous.

This is my problem, and hence why I worry

some posters here could be undercover adcomms posing as applicants

please don't expose my long con I have worked v hard on this

[pretzeltime]

I am always baffled by people who roll into certain threads and write "checking in lol I don't even wanna go here but I got a fee waiver this place is garbage"

Like, THAT or anything along those lines is a dumb thing to post

Oh also, just be a nice person and you're prob in the clear

Yeah I always cringe at those too. If an adcom connects the dots you're pretty much an immediate ding since you're basically stating that admitting you is a waste of their time.

Yeah. Tbh, I probably wouldn't be THRILLED if adcoms knew this was my account, because it reveals me to be a neurotic person, but otherwise I wouldn't care too much. I think most people assume that people are more casual in these sorts of settings, so as long as you aren't an ass or an idiot you'll be fine.

I feel somewhat similar...though I've also revealed more details than necessary in character and fitness posts

These schools get 5000 applicants, do you think they have the time to search through all 500 of your posts to figure you out? Unless you have something really specific and memorable about you, I feel like this is pretty unlikely. however, in general you should be relatively anonymous on the internet and not give out details because there are some weird people out there.

That what's I would think too? I mean I'd imagine the adcomms at the top schools are incredibly busy people, and it seems like lurking that intensely would be extremely time-consuming? unless, as you say, you've got something specific, memorable, and easily accessible.

[Dodocogon]

Basically don't trash talk a school in its particular thread and I bet you'd be good.

Don't know why you would do that for a school you're looking get into, but who knows.

[proteinshake]

open for a PS swap.

can't believe pretzel has been undercover all along

smh, and i thought we were cool

[20170322]

Idk why, but not a single one of my status checkers is working.

I can't find the link to my status checker.
