On all the acceptances!

Congrats

You have some pretty good options! Don't withdraw from NYU! Sometimes you get lucky, but I do understand considering decision time is approaching. GOOD LUCK!

Thanks!
Friday, May 25 2007 at 08:00 PM

Thanks! Hastings makes such sense for me! I feel intense relief...

Columbia
Saturday, October 27 2007 at 08:00 PM

Yep, I'm 89.9% sure I'm going to enroll at Columbia. You have very good options as well. Where are you leaning? Cornell? I wish you luck transferring in '09.

Congrats!

Congrats on all of your acceptances and good luck at Michigan this fall!

Thanks
Monday, July 23 2007 at 08:00 PM

You have some pretty good acceptances yourself. I see you chose Michigan...good luck there. Originally I was leaning towards going to GW beause DC would have been a better location for me for personal reasons but now with the Cornell acceptance I have no idea where I'll be in the fall. I plan on riding out all my waitlists so anything can change.

Transfer
Monday, July 09 2007 at 08:00 PM

I read on LSD that you were thinking about transferring to a school closer to NY. I'm in the same position you are, as I want to be in NYC but I'm not willing to go to Fordham. Are you still planning on doing so?

GW or Cornell
Monday, July 23 2007 at 08:00 PM

Out of curiosity which would you choose? You seem to be pretty knowledgeable of both schools. I'd appreciate your opinion.

Thanks
Monday, July 23 2007 at 08:00 PM

A lot for your advice. Everyone's been telling me the same thing and you are right...it really isn't a sacrifice to be in Ithaca for 3 years.

Thanks ...
Monday, October 22 2007 at 08:00 PM

... for all the encouragement and good luck at Michigan!

more info about PS/ DS
Tuesday, April 15 2008 at 08:00 PM

I know that PS is a personal statement, but what is a DS? I have similar stats, but have had medical and financial hardships; and looking for more ways to make myself a more desirable candidate. Any advice??

Tuesday, April 15 2008 at 08:00 PM

thanks for the information

thanks
Friday, March 07 2008 at 07:00 PM

thanks for the advice. i'm going to save up and do a class, and try to take all 50 tests. it'll suck and be time consuming, but If I get a phone call from Toby Stock it'll all be worth it

LSAT advice
Tuesday, April 15 2008 at 08:00 PM

another quick question, did you take a LSAT prep course? If yes, which one.

a tough choice
Tuesday, January 30 2007 at 07:00 PM

thanks duder. i'm not yet sure what i'm going to do, actually... it boils down to quality of life issues. i really really enjoyed ann arbor!

Unfortunately even the great lengths that I went through to get out of the GULC agreement went unsuccessfully. I\'ll be at GTown next year but looking to transfer

LSAT tips?
Saturday, October 24 2009 at 08:00 PM

We are GPA twins, and I'm an AA female intending to apply to Cornell, GW, and Gtown. Did you enroll in courses for the LSAT and if so which? Any tips? Thanks.
