splits club

Sones, you are welcome to join splits-anonymous, initiation is at dawn tomorrow. You will need to bring a penguin-- preferably live, and one that you do not like very much. Personally I suggest bringing a Rockhopper, as they tend to be more aerodynamic which can be totally key to the success of your initiation. We meet at dawn at the NYU stadium (NYU because they are known for being LSAT whores) and one of the older and respected members will hold the penguin for you. You will then kick the penguin over the field goal. If you manage to accomplish this feat you will be regaled as one of greatest LSAT splitters of all time, and we will set you up on a blind-date with a hot harvard law student. /penguins are awesome

always nice to see another splitter... do u have a lsn profile?

On the acceptances so far, they rank like this: 1) Seton Hall - the $ totally makes the deal; relative rank among acceptances is good; NYC factor 2) Pacific - Won't be too much more money than SH , considering living exp; jumping a tier helps the cause, and word is the school is on the rise; and the weather is a huge plus 3) Rutgers - Highest ranked acceptance so far; NYC factor; lowest tuition 4) Southwestern - LA factor, but too much to pay for a T3 5) NYLS - the NY version of SW 6) MSU - jumping a tier helps, but not enough $ to make me forget she was a T4 last year

Seton Hall

SHU seems like it to me, especially since they gave me a scholarship, and I can only afford one deposit. I am gonna hold out a few more days for American, who unfortunatly seem to have stuck their thumbs up their asses

Nice work

Good to see another splitter who sent his apps out late... wonder how the splits got there in the first place. Just kidding. Good work so far and best of luck with the remaining schools!

Final Destination

I think I will go to Wash U unless William & Mary takes me from the waiting list. What are you thinking at this point? I am guessing that you are waiting to hear from the rest of the 16 schools. (And I thought applying to 12 was a bit ridiculous.)

Its probably going to be Seton Hall. With the exception of Fordham, I dont believe any acceptance would change my mind. I think getting a nearly a full ride from a lower tier 2 would suit me better than paying close to full tuiton at higher tier 2. Any opinions?

Current rank of Acceptances
Wednesday, July 06 2005 at 08:00 PM

1) Cardozo 2) Seton Hall

what the hell?
