Additional Information
10/25 - Hope all of you October LSATers received the score you were hoping for!
10/27 - Duke status changed back! Your file is under review. A decision has not yet been made.
Perhaps they were just waiting for the October LSAT scores to start reviewing the majority of the applicant pool. Regardless, any progress is progress, so this week is starting off better than the last two.
10/27 - My account was created 1 year ago today. Celebration!
10/28 - Complete at WUSTL (via email inquiry). Probably went complete before today, but today is when I had it confirmed.
In other news, if previous cycles are any indication, another batch of TS1s should go out Thursday or Friday, so best of luck to everyone hoping to receive one.
10/29 - IN AT GEORGETOWN! Feels sooooo good getting that first acceptance. The feeling of knowing you are an acceptable applicant and that no matter what happens, you'll have the option of attending a school as amazing as Georgetown is a huge relief.
10/31 - TS1 invite! Best.Week.Ever
11/6 - Officially complete at WUSTL. No TS1 call yet.
11/10 - I think Toby forgot about me =(
11/11 - TS1 at 1:40 PM. Lasted about 6.5 minutes. Sudden onset stuttering/repetition of what I wanted to say/choking on my words. I don't think it went that poorly, but definitely not one of my finer phone conversations! lol
11/23 - Michigan status checker has gone to decision! Now to find out exactly what that decision is...
11/24 - In at Michigan! Handwritten note from Dean Z. I know it is done for everyone, but it's still a nice touch. I'm so excited!
11/25 - In at Harvard! TS2 at 12:16. Wow.
11/27 - Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
12/4 - I have withdrawn my applications from Duke, UCLA, WUSTL, and Penn.
12/10 - Semester over. Darrow invite from Michigan. Fantastic day!
12/16 - It's my birthday! Yay! I think Yale should give me a birthday present. Right, Yale?
12/18 - Working on my Darrow essay and will likely submit it Sunday or Monday. I also just finished watching season 1 of Damages. I can't recommend this show enough. Do yourself a favor and ask for it for Christmas. It's brilliant.
12/22 - In at NYU! Feels good since they rejected me for undergrad.
12/23 - In at Chicago via phone call this morning
12/24 - Merry Christmas eve, everyone. Anyone care to predict the rest of my cycle?
12/25 - Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all! Hope Santa brings you what you want!
1/1/*09* - Happy New Year everyone! Hope 2009 brings happiness to all.
1/6 - Woke up at 11:30, and receive a full Darrow invite at 11:35. Unbelievable. I'm absolutely shocked right now. Full tuition plus 7500 stipend.

Alright! Tuesday, October 30th, 2007 at 10:07 am
I think I I will apply to HYS. I guess I maybe surprised. Stay tuned! Best of Luck!
Good luck this cycle Monday, November 19th, 2007 at 4:55 pm
I'm going to add HLS to my list just for fun. Sending out my applications starting tonight, so I'm gearing up for an interesting cycle. I'm sure you're going to have some great results too.
good luck Sunday, April 20th, 2008 at 6:41 pm
hey man, GOOD LUCK. not that you need it. honestly if I were you I'd apply just to HYS, CCN and then maybe Michigan if you're interested in full darrow.
its always great to see other black males doing well

don't understimate yourself Sunday, April 20th, 2008 at 8:01 pm
you are without a doubt probably among the top 10 black males numbers-wise in the country. haha don't underestimate a 177 - thats just unheard of for us, which is unfortunate but i mean take advantage.
no i haven't taken the LSAT yet. I took a diagnostic last October with a 152, got a 157 a couple of months ago (no additional prep, just figured I'd check to see any progress) and I'm doing full-time LSAT prep over the summer. I'm hoping to get what I think is a realistic target of 172 so I can get into H-Bomb. Thats the goal
But yeah man any advice would be great

Leaning towards HLS. Good luck!
Congrats on the LSAT Wednesday, April 23rd, 2008 at 2:17 am
Did you self-study or take a course? I'm leaning toward Testmasters.
Thanks man Tuesday, April 29th, 2008 at 3:41 pm
I'd lay down money you're going to have an even better one. Good luck on your cycle!
Yale Thursday, May 1st, 2008 at 9:57 am
I think my GPA would have kept me out of Yale, and by the time I was ready to apply to Yale, I was already in at Harvard and had the Darrow invite in my hand, so I kind of ran out of steam. In retrospect I kind of wish I had applied just to see.
I don't think you'll have that problem, your GPA is really much better.
P.S. - if you're looking for unsolicited advice, check out the Ivey Guide to Law School Admissions. I used it to polish my application package, and I think it was pretty important in getting me in the door at a couple of schools.

Excellent! If you need any proofreading help as you get your essays done, PM me on LSD.
It was a combination of a few things. Being debt-free is very nice, but I also liked Michigan Law a lot when I visited, and this is my home state.

Columbia Monday, May 26th, 2008 at 9:43 pm
I never went complete at Columbia. Because I was on academic probation 8 years ago, they required a letter from my dean at my old university, and she never sent it despite repeated requests. I probably could have tried harder to get the letter out of her, but I was never big on Columbia anyway - not a fan of NYC.
don't waste money! Thursday, June 12th, 2008 at 3:22 pm
hey man, to be honest unless you're getting a fee waiver, if I were you I would just apply to HYS.
With your stats you really don't need to apply lower than that. You should get into HLS basically a few weeks after you go complete.

LSAT!?! WOWZA! Monday, June 23rd, 2008 at 8:42 pm
Ummm help a sista out...how the heck did you do soo good on your lsat??...i just took mine in June waiting on those scores...hoping for something in the 160's...( u can hit me up on email)
october Monday, July 7th, 2008 at 3:47 pm
hey i didn't take it. i got a 165 on my last prep exam and testmasters starts next week, so things are going pretty well considering i still have 3 months
i hope so... Wednesday, July 23rd, 2008 at 10:32 am
i'm not sure about a 177, but as long as my score starts with a 17, i'll be happy

with your LSAT and being URM, i'm sure you going to get into some GREAT schools. good luck this cycle!
re: Thanks! Friday, August 8th, 2008 at 9:18 pm
Penn, I think. It would be Columbia, but I'm just barely within the number ranges there and it probably won't happen =(
TITLE REQUIRED Friday, August 15th, 2008 at 12:06 pm
I cant help but be wowed by your LSAT. Any tips please? Would be taking in a lil over a month.. Anxious and nervous times!!! :)
amazing LSAT! Saturday, August 16th, 2008 at 9:09 pm
congratulations, and good luck with this cycle (not that you need it!)
cheers!

PTs Sunday, August 17th, 2008 at 11:08 am
i hit a wall around 170, so i took a couple weeks off and am resuming studying now. i really *really* want to break 175 on test day, since my GPA is waitlist territory for a lot of schools. hopefully PTing once every day or two will help me get there!
thank you so much! Monday, August 18th, 2008 at 2:39 pm
it's SO nice to meet people who are sincerely good and kind, you deserve everything you want with your cycle and MORE -- i'll be in touch!
best wishes!

good luck! you have better numbers than i did and i only ended up applying to three schools. hey you could probably just apply to HY and be golden.
Friday, September 5th, 2008 at 1:11 pm
good luck trying to compete with me! i'm the best law school applicant ever!

yeesh

whatever dude you're money, good for you though.
i'm just trying to study as hard as i can for this thing. i just hate it so much, haha. its just getting tiring.
BUT i got a 173 the other day, and while that was on the older curve (-10), it still means I'm improving.
still have 3 weeks, i'm going to work as hard as i know how...wish me luck
god knows i'll need it

really? Wednesday, September 10th, 2008 at 4:42 pm
it was preptest C...i thought the older tests were easier? i think the biggest difference is the curve. one of the '98 tests i was doing had -10 at 176. which is absolutely ridiculous.
i'm just struggling with mbt/weaken/assumption/flaw. my score is pretty much going to be determined on how well i can improve on those areas between now and test day

i hope so... Wednesday, September 10th, 2008 at 10:37 pm
i did the june 2007 and that didn't go so well. but i've definitely improved since then...i've been focusing on refining my reasoning. i'm going to start doing a post 2004 preptest a day starting on monday
and.. Wednesday, September 10th, 2008 at 10:39 pm
why are you applying to so many schools? I could see HYSCCN and then M if you're interested in the darrow, but the others?
as long as your rest of the application is good enough i'd be surprised if you didn't get offered a hamilton from Columbia

well good luck. and the HLS application is available, in case you want to submit it the 14th at midnight, haha
Good Score! Wednesday, September 17th, 2008 at 3:22 pm
My LSDAS GPA is the same as yours, though I wish my LSAT score were that high. I'm also an URM. What did you do to get such a high score?
... Saturday, October 4th, 2008 at 4:35 pm
you know, we'll see on October 27th
thats all i can say for certainty at this point

You're not the only one Tuesday, October 14th, 2008 at 11:16 am
Who is checking the status checkers every five minutes. The sad thing is I'm not even complete yet, still waiting on my lsat score! Good luck!
good looking cycle of apps Tuesday, October 14th, 2008 at 9:20 pm
Who checks status checkers every 5 minutes? How lame!!! Give it at least 15 minutes to update--good luck.
I feel you on the Northwestern Fee. It was shocking. Did you apply to the accelerated program? I think the 3 year fee is $80--still a lot, but manageable. Same as Georgetown.

wow interesting Thursday, October 16th, 2008 at 7:41 pm
i'm shocked you didnt get a T1 already but you'll definitely get one soon enough!
haha Thursday, October 16th, 2008 at 9:08 pm
dude whatever you'll be fine
i really wouldn't worry about it
i really wouldn't worry about it
you got me Thursday, October 16th, 2008 at 10:21 pm
haha well i've had a lot of work to do in school so i haven't thought about it too much - i have kept checking my LOR status on my school's website every five minutes. it takes then 3-5 days to process the recommendation, then they have to mail it to LSAC and then it takes them another week to process it. I was hoping to go complete next Friday, but I doubt thats going to happen at this point.
in regards to the LSAT, I know that I got at least 4 wrong and I know why (which is even worse!). Other than that, I'm bound to have a few surprises, but I actually probably didn't do *that* bad.
I'm retaking in December though because although I'd love to prove myself wrong, I don't think I got a 172 and no 172, no HYS so its worth a re-take.

are you sure you checked the black box? haha
no ts1 for me Friday, October 17th, 2008 at 2:10 pm
I didn't get a TS1 either, but my application just switched to "under review" yesterday. I haven't gotten the "complete" email yet, but I'm not looking for anything until at least 10/27 (per that email posted on TLS).
yeah Sunday, October 19th, 2008 at 9:13 pm
i just hope i didn't bomb it. i know exactly what 4-5 questions or so I think I got wrong and I just hope that was it.
it'd be really disappointing if after all that I didn't do well.
we'll see what happens.
and you'll be fine. just have to wait a couple of months

Hmm.... Sunday, November 2nd, 2008 at 8:22 pm
It would be awesome to be accepted... but I would not be able to pass up $$$ at other schools
Sunday, November 2nd, 2008 at 9:43 pm
I didn't include all of the schools Im applying to. I'll put all of them up near the end of the cycle. I don't want to do big law so Im pretty averse to big school debt.

nah Friday, November 28th, 2008 at 12:53 pm
no i'm going to start studying (briskly) for the LSAT & GMAT again come new year and probably take both in June. I'm only going to apply to T6 and if I bomb the LSAT again/don't get in to one of those then I'll just stay on the corporate track.
Because while I wouldn't mind being a lawyer, I definitely don't have to be a lawyer. I definitely want to run my own financial consulting firm one day and I think that a MBA would be significantly more useful for than than a JD from Cornell.
Particularly since its painfully easy to get into Tuck Business School having gone to Dartmouth for undergrad, so I'm not really worried about getting in there.
BUT CONGRATS ON HARVARD!!! Are you pretty set on going there or are you holding out for Yale and Stanford?

How do I send you a private message, only because you didn't give me your email, but I will include mines.
Also it's funny you mentioned that because just last night I talk to someone who suggested I retake the June LSAT, which gives me great time to study and hopefully if my score increases I can then send that score to DePaul which may help me get off their waitlist and if that doesn't work then I can use that score for 2010 cycle (but I will surely hate to start school in 2010).
Please offer suggestions.

I definitely give you kudos for a fabulous score. I am taking the LSAT next summer, and pray that I get a score in the vicinity of yours. I'm studying on my own with various practice tests and different books. Not sure if I should pay money for an actual course though....
Congrats! Tuesday, December 9th, 2008 at 12:12 am
Congrats on Harvard and your other wonderful acceptances! I saw your profile on here before with your amazing LSAT score, but now seeing that you've been accepted into the best law school in the country, I had to say something. You are truly an inspiration and I wish you all the best this cycle. I have a feeling it will be amazing for you :)

I was checking out my numbers clones, and there you were - admitted to Harvard already, too. Onya mate!
I'm no URM, but I am from New Zealand, and worked through college. Hopefully that'll be enough to get to Harvard/Yale/Columbia.

Thank you for your kind words and congratulations. I hope we both hear much more good news in the near future. Wishing you and yours all the best and I hope you have a wonderful holiday season :)
You'll get to NZ, for sure Tuesday, December 16th, 2008 at 11:49 pm
New Zealand is indeed a beautiful country. I figure if you're Harvard material, you'll be able to make the trip someday - assuming you can get time off from the crazy white-shoe firm you'll probably work for straight out of law school... ;-)
Oh, and happy birthday!

I haven't really made any decisions yet. Both the Darrow and HLS are persuasive, but I'm going to wait until I know the various scholarship amounts and then start to narrow it down. Thanks again and I hope the rest of your cycle goes well!

Im leaning towards HLS at the moment.... its going to be very difficult! I visited Mich and Columbia and Mich was more impressive to me, so we'll see.

Thanks man. Best of luck to you! congrats on Harvard! If we end up going to the same school we'll have to exchange information.

Hey, congrats on Harvard. Have you wrapped up the cycle, or are you still holding out for Yale and Stanford?
Do you really think I'm looking good at Harvard given my mediocre GPA? While I'm aware that our demographic doesn't perform so well on the LSAT, you would think that one test wouldn't be enough to make up for an entire undergrad experience, but I'm certainly not complaining.
By the way, if you'd like, I think you could apply to a few for schools and actually sweep the entire t14. Perhaps you could get some sort of championship belt to wear around next year to commemorate the achievement.
