monkeybrains (2022-2023)

President and other leadership positions in a few political & community service groups. RA. Not a whole lot too exciting.

LORs I would probably say above average.

Dual-degree: BS in Econ and BA in Poli Sci

I should add that in late January I sent an updated transcript with my fall semester grades to LSAC, which sent them along to every school to which I had applied. My updated GPA is 3.74 (3.73 Degree)

My LSAT is an average of 167 + 174. I will be writing an Addendum relating to health issues surrounding the lower LSAT.

Sent is "Date Transmitted." Received is generally when the school emailed me acknowledging receipt of the application. Complete is of course the date I was notified of going complete.

For UVA, Northwestern, Penn, Boalt, and Cornell, the decision date is the date of the email.

For Duke, Stanford, Yale, and Columbia, the decision date is the date I received the letter in the mail (and I do check my mail everyday).

For NYU and Georgetown, the decision date is the postmark on the envelope.

For Chicago, I received a call on my cell at approx. 6 pm EST, but I missed the call. The voicemail only said to call them back, but by the time I got around to it, no one picked up. I am assuming I got in, though, if I got the call.
