IN AT NYU! I'm pretty sure this hasn't sunk in because I haven't yet broken down in tears (maybe it's because they left a voicemail and I'll cry once I see the letter, or maybe I am actually growing up and past that, which would make me really sad. and cry a little)

My numbers were extremely low and I got in! I know every one at top law says your softs / essays / recs basically don't matter for shit. But I think they all helped me tons. PM me for more info.

Best of luck to all of you! I will be withdrawing all other apps. I ED'd NYU.

I know Columbia and NYU are almost impossible, but hoping my softs/URM status will get me there.

I am so glad you got in! It gives me hope because our numbers are similar and I've applied to schools a bit out of my number range. Congratulations and best of luck :)

Your softs are amazing. Of course NYU accepted you. Enjoy Greenwich Village and Soho. Hopefully, I'll see you there.
