Additional Information
2/22/10 - waitlisted at USC. I've decided to get proactive. I have sent LOCI to NYU, Duke, Chicago, and now, USC! I hope showing them I still want to attend will make some difference!!! Come on people. Show me some love!!
02/18/10 - more rejections. sad about berks even though I knew it was a long, long shot. My tears dry up quickly though when I remember that regardless of the rest of my apps, I'll STILL be attending a T14 <3
02/10/10 - dinged at UVA. no tears though - i only applied because of the fee waiver! but I would really appreciate some positive news!
02/06/10 - withdrew from Vanderbilt and Boston - at this point I wouldn't go to either of these schools over Cornell, so I don't see the point in remaining in their admitted/waitlisted piles. Hopefully someone's dream-school spot opens up because of this!!
02/03/10 - waitlisted at Vanderbilt, but all I can think about is the fact that there is less than 2 weeks before my Berkeley FR decision is out!
01/29/10 - waitlisted at Chicago! I'm happy I'm still being considered! I'll be sending in new essays to help change their mind ;)
01/26/10 - email from NYU asking for an updated transcript. I'm happy it's not a flat out rejection! I would LOVE to attend NYU in the fall!
01/19/10- soooooooooo sad i was rejected from ucla. i just don't get it.
01/15/10 - dinged at Harvard. no surprise. that was just for fun because you never know!!!!
01/12/10 - rejected from Penn. Didn't lose much since I got a fee waiver. But, now I'm 2-1 with acceptances from schools that have given me fee waivers.
01/11/10 - email from Berkeley today saying that I've passed the initial stages and will be reviewed by the final committee by the end of January! I'm staying optimistic!!!
01/02/10 - I haven't heard anything in a few weeks and I'm getting veryyyy antsy! There have been a few status changes recently but I suppose it's just more people reviewing. Hopefully that means there will be some final decisions coming out soon!
12/14/09 - In at Boston!! phone call from the Dean was so nice!
12/08/09 - email from Gtown - rejected :( no big deal. I don't like DC anyways! haha
12/08/09 - In at Cornell! yessss!!!
11/6/09 - Hold from Texas - applied EA, but have been placed in the regular application pool.

Alright, I'm happy to see Latinas doing big things! Did you walk out the test in June knowing you didn't do well? I'm afraid of a meltdown come test day haha. Crunch time until the 26th.

Any news? I'm curious how my fellow PR is doing.
BU Admit Friday, December 18th, 2009 at 4:50 pm
Congrats on BU! How did they notify you?

Hey congrats on Boston and Cornell so far. I'm sure you'll get into some school in the top 8 though.
Saturday, December 19th, 2009 at 3:25 pm
BU called me! It was so shocking! but a really nice touch. Also, I received an acceptance package in the mail. The Dean also included a hand-written note about my PS in the letter, which was really sweet.

Congratulations on all your acceptances! Looks like you will have a wonderful cycle!
Wednesday, January 13th, 2010 at 1:37 pm
You have to write me when you hear from Penn, Columbia, and Harvard! :)
Tuesday, January 19th, 2010 at 7:49 pm
I just got held at Harvard! Looks like we keep on overlapping each other with decision results. Next big decision: Columbia!
hi! Wednesday, February 10th, 2010 at 5:21 pm
just wanted to say hi to a Latina with numbers similar to mine. Good luck on your pending apps!
Dont sweat it... Thursday, February 11th, 2010 at 2:17 am
I feel a U of California in your near future. Getting denied at UCLA is almost a pre-requisite for getting into Berkeley. Also if it makes you feel any better, I haven't even heard back from UCLA lol
Almost time Wednesday, February 17th, 2010 at 12:08 pm
Yeah I'n FR, so only a few more days!
Good Luck also, hopefully my prediction was correct.

Congrats on Cornell!! Do you think you will be attending there?
Question Friday, February 19th, 2010 at 4:29 am
I was wondering, was 162 your real LSAT score or is it fudged? And how many itmes did u take lsat and what do you believe placed you over the edge with such a mediocre score to get into cornell?? Did you write that you are a bad test taker or soemthing supplemental? Your response would be greatly appreciated!! thanks
Friday, February 19th, 2010 at 7:11 pm
I am not sure at all. It's a very tough choice. Are you attending any Accepted Student day?
Congrats! Saturday, February 20th, 2010 at 7:30 pm
On your acceptances! Where are you leaning right now?
Friday, February 26th, 2010 at 10:16 am
I was suppose to go to the first one but now witht he snow day I want to attend that diversity event so I might head over for the third one instead. It just seems like there are very little days left after the visit to make a decision. But that event is very important to me so I will prob head back anyway.
GL Friday, February 26th, 2010 at 2:34 pm
Good Luck on your pending apps!
