Or, a few months from now when the rejections start pouring in, I'll know it's because I couldn't write a perfect personal statement. :-) Thanks, and good luck.

It was nice to recieve an acceptance first. with your numbers you'll hear good things soon too =)

I think you're gpa will really help, I should have thought about that a bit more. But as long as I get out of the cold midwestern winter I'll be happy!

Hey, congrats on Marquette! The more I talk to my Profs. about the school the better it is sounding. Good luck with the rest of your cycle.

Actually I wrote the UCLA special interest essay on my interest in middle eastern studies and my research on the iranian revolution. I am more interested in environmental law and comparative intl law than race studies. Anyways thanks for the kind words and good luck with the cycle!

congrats to you on your two acceptances! Last year I met an alum of my school who loved Marquette and had just finished a clerkship in DC. A friend of mine is a Hamline 1L this year and also loves it ... but by the look of your apps you, like me, are at least making some attempt to get the HELL out of the cold...

Congratulations on two awesome acceptances!! That is so exciting...start celebrating!

You have the most detailed profile ever! LOL. USD acceptance makes me feel amazing! Great way to start things off. Best luck, and maybe I'll see you there? Is it a top choice of yours?

For leaving the comment on my page regarding McGeorge. Congrats on your accepts as well. You extracurriculars are very impressive. Best of luck to you!

Thanks for the positive comments on my page--and congratulations on your acceptances! No doubt you will have great choices. -randomthings

Thanks for the comments, it is a bummer being in the same place as last year, but I think my application is stronger and hopefully my loyalty will count for something. I would be all for starting the club, I sure hope we get a chance to do so.

Thanks for the congrats. Looks like you are in for a great cycle! Congrats to you on Hamline and Marquette!

No, I never received any emails about 3 people reading my application, or anything similar to that. The last thing I heard from Wiscosin before my acceptance was about filling out the financial aid form... Hope that helps! And good luck on your cycle, I'm sure you have a lot of great acceptances to look forward to!

I noticed you got that same strange e-mail from Wisconsin saying that it would be 6-8 weeks, and I saw that you asked some other people who are already accepted if they got it too.... I was just wondering what you found out. I applied October 6th, but just got that same e-mail. Think I will hear from them soon? Thanks! and Best of luck

Congrats on your acceptances so far! I'll be keeping up with you through the cycle, and I hope you get many more!

Congrats on your acceptance and scholarship to DePaul!!! WOO HOO!!

Hey thanks for the kind words. It looks Like your cycle is going well! Question. Would you take Miami w/ no money or Southwestern w / no money? The goal in mind is to eventually end up practicing in Utah. Any input would be appreciated.

...And another acceptance with a scholarship...CONGRATS!

Hi StG! I miss you, too. Deferred means they have yet to come to a decision on my file. I applied early admission to UMN and that means they're required to give me a decision by the end of December. They didn't accept me, but they didn't want to reject me, so they deferred me to the regular applicant pool and will rereview my file over the coming months. Wish we could talk more. I can't post anymore from my work, so that's a downer. Send me an email sometime, alright? :)

Thanks also to everyone's who's been positive and commented on my LSN account. I really appreciate the well wishes. I only hope I have such friendly and caring people as classmates next year in law school.

hi new friend! congrats on all your acceptances so far. there is a definitely possibility that we will be classmates next year. neat! i'm crossing my fingers that our umich decisions (whatever they are) come ASAP!

Are you planning to do law school part time? If so, do you have an opinion as to which of the schools in WI or IL seem most amenable to part-timers? I'd appreciate any insights you can offer. I am thinking about applying to more schools, and could use a fresh perspective on the difficulties particular to part time programs.

I just realized I should have given you my email address in case you prefer to discuss part time issues off the board. Feel free to drop me a line if you have the time. Also, ref your previous post about UW emails - the one I got made no mention of the number of reviewers. It did stress the importance of character and fitness info. I can forward you a copy if you like so can see exactly what it says. Good luck with your outstanding apps.

Thanks for the kind words. Good luck with Minnesota. I would take the request for more info as a good sign (why would they want more from you if they weren't seriously considering you?)

you have a strong resume. you will do fine and i am sure one of those top schools will accept you. good for you for trying hard and reaching high.

I am almost positive that I will be going to one of the scholars days...so do they actually pay for the plane ticket?

I found you, you cute little kitty avatar-ed Makotah. Good luck on your apps I'll be rootin' for ya! -Data from LSD

Congratulations on all of your acceptances! We both seem to be doing pretty well so far this cycle. I'd love to be your roomy; cats loooooooove me. I just hope that your boyfriend doesn't get jealous ;) I'm going to call pacific on monday to see what the deal is with flying and the dates. I want to go for the first weekend (its like 3.5 weeks away eek) and fly out of san francisco so that I can hang out with my sister. Lets see what they say. Hopefully I'll see you there! --Bouzie1982

Thanks for signin my wall on LSN. Yeah, when I first heard about Notre Dame kinda bummed. Just cuz I thought I had a pretty reasonable chance. Out of the Indiana schools it would be the only possibility I'd be okay with. But we'll see. You got into Depaul you sneaky thing and I didn't even know! Congrats! Maybe by some twist of fate we'll be classmates ;)

Wow, my very first troll. Not sure I'm deserving, though. I haven't committed any LSN crime like bragging about my accomplishments, etc. The only thing I'm guilty of is applying to a few schools that were out of my reach based on scores. &tier 2 toilet? Maybe, but I'm happy about my choices so far, so that's all that matters. Thanks for the laugh, though. It's awesome to know someone took the time to bash me when my profile's not even all that interesting. ;)

Hey there looks like you've racked up some acceptances so congrats especially on Depaul :) Where do you think you're headed at this point?

Huh, totally forgot about filling out that need access thing for UCLA. I better get crackin' on that. Aww, sorry about the 158 comment..., I'm just feeling sorry for myself. You know, taking the personal inventory... wondering what's wrong with and why the adcomms don't love me. All the while repeating my daily affirmations in front of my mirror, "I'm good enough, smart enough, and goshdarnit people like me." :D Anyway, barring some unforeseen miracle, yup looks like its gonna be UMich. Thanks for your kind words :) And may I say your choice in Cali near the UofP, makes you happy to be alive. You might even forget you're in law school (but you better not). Heh, ok done incoherently babbling on your wall. Take care little Makotah. -Data

U of O has to be the most gorgeous campus I've ever seen. Ppl seemed real nice too. Congrats...

I work with a recent UO law school grad. He loved the campus, and his experience as a whole. That said, he was very put off by a tuition hike that resulted in RETROACTIVE tuition increases. Hopefully a problem in the past and nothing more, but it might be something worth asking them about. Congrats on all the acceptances

Thanks for the good wishes. I am now very glad I only applied to one school. After all the tension of waiting for an acceptance, I wouldn't want to have to cope with the pressure of choosing between schools, too. You have a lot of nice options (kudos), but that make for a difficult decision. If I briefly envied people with multiple opportunities for acceptance, that moment has definitely passed. Good luck!

I'm bummed to hear you're having trouble with them, if only because I'd come to expect more from them. It is great to hear when people find a place that really suits them though, like Pacific. Best of luck getting more cash out of them

I'm still waiting for Minn. I think I'm going to go to UK though since I got full tuition. I'm waiting for the MA program in Diplomacy. Your resume' is awsome though. I'm suprised you were rejected. I always love to remember that the LSAT is good at predicting how good you do in law school but not how good of a lawyer you are.

I guess we'll see each other at McGeorge. Thanks for all of your help on LSD, it really went a long way in terms of helping me choose McGeorge. I just wanted to see who else was going and it seems that everyone I've encountered has been a decent person like yourself. See you in August!
