Hello twin...

We are almost number twins in every way! Good to see another lowish GPA who decided to wait one exam before demolishing the LSAT. Good luck!

More apps to come

No, not just UVA. I will apply to all of these. Just haven't had the time. Thanks for your concern though, and congrats on Columbia

Interesting comment

Your comment hints that around the time of deadline, schools have already admitted everyone they would anyway admit? Hum ... that must be why they take up to three months beyond said deadline to send acceptance notices. Thanks for your concern anyways.

Good

You have a good shot at getting into at least a third of these schools, but I still think it's extremely gutsy to not have applied to a safety. But I guess the sheer number of schools you're applying to is in and by itself the safety. That's decent logic. Good luck!

"actually" does have a good point about application dates... why did you wait so long?! I'm your numbers twin, and I was able to squeeze into Columbia by applying ED. Don't get me wrong, I'm rootin' for ya :D

Just wondering why you applied to USF and not Hastings?

Simple
Wednesday, September 07 2005 at 08:00 PM

Because Hastings does not have a part time program. I have a job in SF that I would keep if I am to attend USF

CONGRATS ON UVA!! what did you do to get in?!?

I applied?
Wednesday, September 07 2005 at 08:00 PM

Really ... not much. I didn't send in any additional material, though I would have had I not gotten the offer. I did however go out of my way (significantly) to visit the school. Got to meet the director of admissions, ask a few questions, slipped him a benjamin. Maybe not that last one. I guess he realized my interest was genuine.
