Arriving at the point in my life where I'd be fine if the schools that haven't gotten back to me yet just go ahead and ding me so I can move on and start negotiating/apartment scoping/etc. Getting tired of being in limbo on the 0.01% chance somewhere surprises me.

If she has the right score my bet is it is going to be Columbia or Harvard.
I feel horrible, but I wish nothing but the worst for her. I wish I was a better person.
She doesn't seem like the rest of her family at least, only some spoiled Instagram posts. I don't think she particularly likes or agrees with her dad.
+1. she's definitely my favorite of his offspring
Plus, have you ever seen what happens when the Donald tries to give her a hug? She knows whats up.

Edit: I sucked at Grammar for a second there.

Idk anything about Tiffany beyond being a Trump. So I can't hate. She do anything especially objectionable?

Not quite there yet, but now that I've gotten a couple acceptances, I'm not stressing about any future dings.

Just got into Columbia, but with no Butler/Hamilton offer, so it feels like a loss anyway (I thought I had the numbers, guess I got my hopes up). Please feel free to tell me how crazy I am for being disappointed about this, its what I need to hear.

It will make it that much easier to choose H or another full ride.
Congrats! (But yeah that sucks. Don't take it to heart.)

I really hope she doesn't take any spot that I could legitimately take at NYU.

imagine if you befriended her at law school and then it's time to meet her family...I don't think with a clear conscience shake the President's hand. Unless I was meeting with him as a member of the government.

These WL are brutal. It sucks having to write essays and letters when you know, no matter what, it is unlikely you'll be taken off the waitlist.

I read off some other thread that Columbia takes only 3-5% off the waitlist. Like that's crazy.

Not sure that I hate that or that it's that surprising tbh. The idea that anyone outside of papa T is anything but a limo liberal in that family is laughable

I keep seeing things praising lawyers and talking in a positive light about law school. Wonder if applicants will go up next year

i noticed that Berk has a median LSAT of just 166, much lower than other schools nearby in ranking. it's 25% lsat is only 163. it seems clearly Berk could improve its lsat numbers and thus its ranking but chooses not to. this is very much unlike the very numbers-driven process at other t14. why then B doesn't try to improve ranking by increasing its lsat median?

another school in t14 where it's true to a slightly lesser extent is Stan, which has lsat median of 171, lower than HY. it's 25% lsat is a low 168. why then Stan doesn't do it too? do Berk and Stan not want to improve their ranking through lsat medians?

ps: leaving yale out of this issue because even though i think they could improve their lsat median further if they want to, they have already highest lsat median of 173 and no incentive to improve ranking as they are 1.

They go for the GPA instead. Idk why, but that's what they do lol

I'm actually really curious what her GPA and LSAT are.

they aren't really "going for" the gpa. their median gpa is merely not abnormally low. Berk c/o 2019 has median gpa of 3.79. it's lower than the schools ranked right above it by a good 0.11. 4 schools ranked below berk are MVDN. all 4 have higher median LSAT >= 2 points. out of these 4, two even have higher median GPA with the other two's median gpa quite close to Berk. so it's not like Berk made up for its loss in median LSAT through GPA, when 2 schools below it have both higher median GPA and LSAT.

this same reasoning applies to Stan also to a lesser extent.

Not really sure how something related to email is childish? Some people receive (non-law school related) email that needs to be immediately checked. I have work and person email on my phone, I check each notification because they could be work, I dont see how that's childish

I get 75+ work emails a day (except weekends usually more manageable 20 or so a day). Most emails expect a pretty quick response so I have to be on top of it. I get both notifications on my watch since work emails hit my phone prior to the computer since our network sucks.
I hate getting work emails on my phone over LTE with an asap turn around but the attachment is unusable on phone so I have to just sit there waiting for it to come to my computer whenever it wants
