Not me, I'm a reverse splitter (stats in profile) with a multitude of softs and strong LORs and PS. Third update on 3/23; no e-mail today.

looks like if you have a 3.6 or higher GPA, or a 167 or higher LSAT, we have a chance... then again it can be a mass waitlist so yea...

I am going to will my 2.7/170 all the way to an acceptance tomorrow. I think if I focus really hard on it, I can do it.

And WTH is my status checker still saying "Application Complete 3/19" when I already got the ding email?

[chicoalto0649]

Also, anyone wanna wager on whether or not this will be the last round of rejections?

I believe it is. The only question left is: is anybody else going to be accepted before April 1? I have a feeling the answer is no.

[Unknownsou]

I'm an optimist, so I'll say that it's the last one until they finish accepting people.

Next question: Are all the 3/23 completes that didn't receive a ding email also URMs?

I'm a 3/10er who's a URM who didn't receive the ding today, if that counts.

Lol thanks. I meant I think it'll be the last round of rejects before April 1st (their stated deadline). Obviously some of the people on the WL will be rejected, but that won't be for a while. I'm trying to keep my hopes up. Positive thinking baby.

you're considered a reverse splitter to WUSTL, with your GPA being over 3.7. if your GPA was below a 3.6 you probably would have been rejected today, considering they rejected a few 166s.

Same here. I just wish WUSTL would either shit or get off the pott.

[finalaspects]

im 162, 3.6, non-urm who went to a 3rd update on 3/23 who hasn't heard back. If softs matter at all in law school admissions, this is the one that would prove it.

once again with a 3.6GPA you are still a splitter at median GPA. if you were lower than 3.6, even a 3.59 i would have agreed.

[JCougar]

I don't know that there is any reason to believe there will be no more acceptances. I know people are trying to lower their expectations as a safeguard, but even WUSTL has no idea whether there will need to be more acceptances or not. They still don't know exactly how many people will be sending in their $200 seat deposit, and they don't know how many of the people that do will be asking for their refundable deposit back.

Anyhow, people above median have fared pretty well off the waitlist. LSN shows that of the people that were WLed above median, few got WL-Rejected. The ones that didn't get admitted after being waitlisted eventually withdrew to go somewhere else instead of being rejected. If WUSTL is really your first choice, getting a WL and being above median might not be all that bad. Of course, this cycle is different from previous years. Applications are up slightly, and the prevalence of people with LSATs of 167+ has increased due to more people retaking the test. So who knows.

conclusion: no one knows.

my lsat is only 1 pt below last year's median and well above the 25%....is that still considered reverse splitter? the people who got rejected with 166 had much lower gpas i thought.
