non URM here, but I was wondering if you had any tips of the PS. We have close numbers (yours are higher). Thanks
I was thinking about writing an addendum but I think I'ld rather not. What will my explanation be for such an extremely low score. If I knew that retaking will make my score higher then I may think about retaking but I won't. If you have an idea of what to write in an addendum for someone like me, let me know....THANKS!
I don't know if I have a history of low scores on standadized tests because I didn't take the SAT for example so...........
I replied to you on my comments section because that seems to be LSN protocol. Best of luck with your cycle!
Congrats on DUKE! Looks like applying early paid off for the both of us.
For the congrats, and congrats for you as well! A personal phone call!? That's awesome!
Thanks for your note, Mabengi001. All the best with your cycle!
On Duke! :)
thats tight that you heard back from duke so quickly. why do you think that is?
Did Cornell actually email you that you were complete? Also, does the status check show that you are complete? I ask because their website/admissions personnel seem overwhelmed already.
Cornell sent me an email telling me that I am complete
on Duke, good luck with the others!
They finally emailed me today...just as I was about to harass them about my application. Thanks for your help and good luck on the cycle. Good to see a fellow liberal arts member doing well in terms of law school.
I actually sent a bunch, just haven't updated. Think I'll get on that now.
On Georgetown!
Thanks people!
Nice job on Dook and GULC. They're the first of many!
Thanks! Same to you on G-town.
...you sure are an early bird. Congrats on Duke and Georgetown - many more thick packets coming your way, I'm sure! Good luck!
Congrats! Are you summer or fall? Good luck with the rest of your cycle (though there are no schools cooler than Michigan)
On Michigan!
I'm fall start.
Yeah--I really pushed for Summer. It sounds like the perfect situation for me.
any advice on an addendum for not performing well on std. tests yet excelling in school?
Thanks
On Harvard to you too!!
Congrats on HARVARD!!!! AWESOME!
and congrats to you too! I look forward to meeting you at the ASW. :-)
We have similar numbers, your acceptances are inspiring :) Congrats!
congrats on harvard!!
On Penn!
on Penn and Cornell!!!
for the congrats! I'm still kinda blown away. You're having a pretty good cycle yourself! Good luck with the rest of them -- I'm predicting good things in your future!
On all your success this cycle, you are doing stellar!!! Hope you continue to exceed all your expectations!
you have some great options!
Why no Columbia?
I do! But you're one to talk - look at you rockin' the admits :) With your H acceptance why haven't you withdrawn from other schools already (unless you're waiting on Y)?
Don't you find that curious? In at Harvard,Upenn, Georgetown, Cornell and then defferred at Fordham
yea I def. messed up that terminology. Those were supposed to be EA. Looks like you've had a great cycle. Congrats on Harvard!
Of course I'm curious, but there's nothing I can do about it now.
Congrats on all of your acceptances!! I applied to fordham too and my status is now "second evaluation." You have much better numbers than me and fordham deferred you?! WTF?
they notified me by mail. an envelope with a thin purple folder. :)
Thank you! Same to you... I half expect to get an e-mail any time now which says that this was all a prank. I guess it will be official when I get the admissions packet in the mail! How long did it take to get your packet once you got in?
On Columbia!
2 applications hidden from view...Y and S?
On Virginia!
Fordham is missing out, too bad for them!!!
on all ur acceptances and good luck and ur pending app! Which of all ur skools including NYU r u leaning more twds?
On NYU!
On NYU and everything else!!
Congrats on an awesome cycle! NYU is my top choice and I see they accepted you recently! :) Do you mind sending me your stats? I'm curious as to whether I have a chance. Thanks!
I didn't get into Harvard and I'm rather bitter and twisted about it. I just wondered what LSAT score a black female needed to get in. Did you actually crack the 150s?
I'm not sure why you want to take your bitterness out on me, but if you didn't get into HLS that's your problem, not mine. And by they way URM is not equal to black. I'm glad I won't have to deal with your ignorance in law school.
wow, seriously, it\'s people like her that make me never ever want to go to yale. she\'s not even the first person i know who\'s so strangely affected by others\' success yet still got in. *rolls eyes* cheers and good luck at harvard!
I generally don't share my score, especially on a public space. I will say that your stats are much better than mine were. Honestly, I wouldn't apply to Fordham, American, or BU. I'd just stick to the top 20, focusing on the t14 bc you will get into a lot of them. You should apply to Northwestern too--they are big on WE and you have great stats and you will probably get good money from them. Good luck...I will check my page periodically, if you need help, let me know.
