3/13 - Withdrew from Marquette.

3/11 - Sent letters withdrawing from Chicago-Kent, New Mexico, and Kentucky. Good luck to those waiting to hear from those schools.

3/10 - Received two letters via snail mail. One letter informed me that I was not named at the Bert Combs scholar at Kentucky (bad news, will be withdrawing) and another letter informing me that I received a new scholarship amount of $24,000 per year at Nebraska (good news).

1/30 - Complete at Michigan.

Hey! Thanks for the input. I am pretty sure I am going to withdraw my application from Florida Coastal. Pending miracles at Temple Loyola and GSU I am kind of leaning toward Seattle with Denver being a close second. Any opinions on those? Congrats on all of your great acceptances so far!

good on you

for getting into so many great schools. But what I don't understand is why certain applicants STOCKPILE acceptances, rather than withdrawing from the schools they won't be attending. You do realize that other people are waiting for those seats, right? Can you or someone else explain this phenomenon to me?

whatever

Thanks for the insults about my LSAT and GPA, but my dad died of cancer during my freshman year and I flunked out. I went back to school after a few years and graduated second in my class. As for the LSAT, well, no excuses for that one. Other than having a wife and kids and a full-time job, which limits one's study time. And anyone who would sit on a seat that they know they're not using is a selfish tool. The whole system breaks down when one individual takes more than his fair share.

Apology

I'm sorry about being such a crybaby about your apps. All the stress got to me that day and I've felt shitty about it ever since. Best of luck to you in all your endeavors. A fellow Cubs fan. Jenks
