2-21-06: Brooklyn Law School said I'd be getting something last week when I called to find out my status the week before that. i had never received complete notification. the women that spoke to me told me it was fine that I called and wished me "good luck" for the next week. Needless to say I didn't recieve anything but I have gotten to know my mail person a lot better.

3-04-06: OMG, I feel so rejected by BLS- I thought they would accept me- I think the flood gates have been opened and the rejections are now free to flow in...

O.K. all I really want now is a Hastings acceptance, and Cardozo and GW is my reach- Forget Cornell- Gtown and Boalt-

I've very similar numbers, similar volunteer work, and had to write "that" addendum, too. We've also applied to two of the same schools. Good luck on your remaining apps, too!

Thanks

Thanks Likewise- good luck to you as well and congratulations on your acceptances so far!

Congrats on Idaho! Did they notify you of the scholarship when you were accepted?

we have similar LSAT scores. wish you the best with cornell.

Northeastern?
Monday, January 30 2006 at 07:00 PM

I'm surprised you didn't try Northeastern, considering you have close enough numbers to have a very good chance at getting in, and it's a huge public interest school, which seems to be what you're most interested in given the EC's you listed. Good luck out there and thanks for working so hard for the workers!

Northeastern

Yeah, I probobly should have applied to Northeastern, I had planned to, but then decided to leave Boston out of the possible places I would be open to moving to. Now I'm sort of kicking myself-

Doesn't it seem like the Hastings admission committe is on strike or something? What takes them sooooo long? I'll bet you're as frustrated as I am.

Does anybody think Hastings cares or even considers the fact that the USF deposit deadline is 4/17 and that many may be be chosing between the two?
