Are you guys all ready to apply? I still need my recommendations, can't decide between waiting till school starts to ask in person, or asking over email now...

Since it may take a month or so for them to get in, you may want to go ahead and ask to get on their calendar if they want to meet with you or anything beforehand. Also, you don't want something horrible to happen and them be unavailable. In situations like these, I'd always lean towards a prompt request, followed by a personal discussion.

I was sitting here thinking I'm ahead of the curve because I've already got the LSAT done. Looks like I'm playing catch up - I still need to write my PS as well.

I asked for my LoRs to be submitted by mid-September, so no.

Personal statement and everything else is finished, though!

Just got the PT invite!!

My transcript isn't submitted yet, but I'm assuming they used my self-reported GPA.

So are you all gonna apply right away? My LORs won't be ready til mid-September, so I'll be on pins and needles til then.
