Additional info & updates

Meh softs, strong public interest focus. I suspect the PI focus was what got me on the WL at Columbia. I did not get an interview at Harvard.

Scholarship totals are over 3 years. No initial scholarship from Texas, negotiated to $15,000 after submitting Cornell's offer. I should note that this year Texas' floor for scholarship offers (for non-URMs, anyway) was 168. I assumed I'd get a scholly given I was at the LSAT median and top quarter GPA, but I was mistaken.

In retrospect, I should have retaken the LSAT and applied much more broadly. I am, however, happy with how my cycle worked out, and will be attending Texas in the fall.

Questions about my cycle and scholarship negotiations should be directed via PM to this username on toplawschools. I'll be more than happy to offer advice.
