Additional info & updates

4/13 - Mailed my seat deposit to Cornell. The cycle is officially over :)

1/28 - Waitlisted at UCLA. Since it was more a backup in case my East coast schools fell through, I'll be withdrawing shortly. I Did not complete the program contribution addendum.

*******************************
Some information that might be helpful:

- LSAC originally messed up my transcript. It had information from the early 90's on it that were classes I never took (I was around 10 years old at the time) So the fixed transcripts were resent in early November (this may have bumped my apps from the top of the pile to the bottom so take the complete dates with a grain of salt... I was pretty upset with LSAC for this but what can you do).

-I've applied to a few other schools I'm still waiting to hear from. I'll add them here when I hear back.

-My numbers are correct. I don't care if an adcomm member can come here and figure out who i am. Everything I write on here is something i wouldn't have a problem with them seeing.

-Cornell is my number one choice right now, and barring a huge scholarship from Vanderbilt, it will be where I attend. Waiting until after my Vandy and Cornell ASW's before making a final decision though.

-Feel free to ask questions... I'll TRY and respond.

Thanks! Based on your (rather blank) profile, I have no idea how you're actually doing, but your numbers indicate that you should do really well.
