pbe011 (2022-2023)

what's your lsat score? good luck!

well good luck regardless. I was just curious.

Hey, i hear ya. I hope it turns out well for you. Have you heard back from any schools yet?

I also applied to UGA and they haven't requested my report either. I heard that they only request them on the 1st and 15th of every month, so its strange they haven't requested yours by now (and mine too). Are you thinking about calling them?

Nope, they still haven't requested mine yet. I'm going to call them tomorrow, I guess. Good luck on W&M, they are already giving out acceptances and $$!

My acceptance letter was the first correspndence I got (small envelope, BTW). I based the "complete" date for my NCCU app on the date my LSDAS file was requested by NCCU.

Just wanted to wish you luck this cycle! I know you will get into a great institution and make a fine attorney one day!

Great news on your acceptance so far...More to come for you. Happy Holiday

Congrats!!!! Looks like you got in somewhere. That is not a bad school either ...Is that your whole list or are there other schools your waiting to hear from?

I will keep checking to see how the other 19 schools turn out for you

Mississippi..small envelope or large? how did you hear?

My sincerest congrats to you on William and Mary. Im excited for you. Best of luck!!!!

On William and Mary. That is huge! You must have written one hell of a personal statement, girl!

Congrats! Best of luck there!

Thanks for giving the rest of us hope!

Congrats on your acceptance... Please be aware that what is more important is the fact that we're all going to law school no matter what. Please do keep in touch, and good luck

William and Mary acceptance is wonderful, congrats! That is so inspiring to see for me. We have the same LSAT score.

College of William and Mary and UT Knoxville (my first choice) whats your secret??

ON W&M Law! I really good friend of mine graduated from thier law school and loved it! Im sure you'll do great too! Best of luck!

That is a major score on your end. Big time congrats to you for getting into that school. I'm happy for you.

on all the acceptances! what's your first choice? The offer from UT (although smaller in number than others, it's most the of in-state tuition) is turning my head...as well as Wash U's....

Hey! Congrats on all of your acceptances, especially U Tenn and William and Mary!!! Those are great schools!! Do you know which one you would like to go to yet?

Congrats on W&M!!! I had a couple of questions for you if you dont mind? Did you write an anything to the admissions board about your LSAT score? Do you have amazing soft factors? And what do you think helped you get in despite your LSAT score? Again congrats!!!

Congrats on all your acceptances! You got into some really great schools. Have you picked where your headed yet?

Hey, you got into some schools. That's all that matters. Now you can work and show them how well you can do. The GPA isn't bad, and not everyone does well on standardized testing. I know a few philosophy PhD students who are very bright but don't test well. So, yeah, good luck.

wOW! You heard from Southern Uni. already? I called and they said they extended their deadline. So when did you get the response? Do you live in Louisina?

Congrats on Southern and thank you so much for your kind words! Honestly, I'm not sure if I can be of much help because I'm in the same situation. Have you visited UTenn and W&M? If not, that may help. Also, have you asked W&M if they could give you some $$$. Let them know that money is an important factor in your decision to come there (I'm doing that with some schools). I hope this is somewhat helpful. If you have any suggestions for me, please let me know. Take care!

I re-read your recent post, and it doesn't sound as hostile as I originally thought. Excuse me if I sound extra defensive, I just rather people not waste space on my page being negative. I know there are frauds and fakes out there, but I am not one of them. So let's all be positive and supportive, ok?

I think I know you...9am? MUSL 171? sorry if Im waaay wrong but u sound like someone I know :)

scratch that...i meant 10am lol

HEY! IT IS YOU! lol sat by you today! :) (BJ) lol

I am sorry that you thought I was coming at you with a hostile attitude. Indeed, my goal was to express the exact opposite sentiment and convey to you that in light of your tremendous success you shouldn't waste your time responding to arrogant and ignorant people such as emmaforrester who obviously lack tack and are in no way being conducive to others on this website. I never conveyed doubt or jealously about your success and am actually quite proud of your success because it shows that no one factor can determine someone's ability to succeed or be admitted to a good school. Thanks for being genuine and answering my questions and again best of luck!!!! Also as you can see most of the posts on your page express overwhelming support and praise for your success and I am simply doing the same.

As of now, where are you thinking of going pbe011?

What about College Of William and Mary? You have a tough decision here. A few of my apps are currently being reviewed. Therefore, I am going to wait a little longer before making a final decision. Right now, I am leaning toward Saint Louis University.

Hey concrats on the schools you have gotton accepted to. Which school are you planning to attend?

Congrats on your cycle....Good luck this fall!!!!

Have you made a decision yet?

Indeed, both schools are tier one schools according to the USNWR rankings. However, they use such factors as alumni contribution, retention, and yield percentages to calculate these ranking. That is why older schools are usually always ranked higher (i.e. Harvard, Yale, Stanford, UVa, etc.). In terms, of where you want to practice I would say WM has a better reputation in the South, but depending on what type of law you would want to practice potential loan debt from going to WM with no scholarship money is something you may want to consider. For instance, if you want to do public interest law you probably want to go to the school that offers you the most money so you aren't burdened with debt when you graduate. In this regard, Tennesee seems like the better choice. I would suggest to you that you consider how well you think you can do at both schools by looking how they grade, faculty ratings from rating websites, and the actual webpages as well as the LSAC profiles when you think about where you want to head. Because these schools aren't t-14's you will have to finish near the top of your class if you want to get a really good corporate job at one of the top law firms. My opinion would be to go where the money is guaranteed. Good Luck!

Have you looked at how well each school places its graduates in Atlanta? If one is higher than the other, you may want to consider going to that school.

Everything's going well. I think that I've decided on Cornell (like 90% sure). I really loved the school and I think that I will be able to get a great job when I go back to Texas. Let me know when you've reached a decision and keep in touch!

Looking foward to meeting you!

Congrats on your decision! UT-Knox is a great choice! Good luck there this fall!

on your acceptances and the decision to go to ut (a little late, but i would have advised that you seek out w&m and tried to establish residency during 2L). we're in very similar situations (except your gpa is better than mine and my lsat is quite a bit higher). best of luck with everything. are you going to reveal your soft factors?!

Its been awhile since I wrote, but I see you chose UT, thats great, and it's so nice to see someone with my LSAT score exceed the odds and go to a Tier 1. I would have loved that opportunity! I wish you the best at UT.

Ya, sorry about that. I tried to delete it and have no idea who wrote it. Best of luck at UT, its a great school.

I was wondering if u had any advice on getting in to UT? If you do and care to share them feel free to send me an email/comment. thank you

I just wanted to commend you on your perseverance and commitment to law school. I have the same lsat score as you do and for the past two years i have been at this law school process. I am the first to admit that i limited myself bc of the numbers game law school put out there. But no reading your profile and your testimony just really gave me a whole new outlook on this process. I limited my myself bc i didnt think my numbers were good enough but obvisiously I am very wrong. Again congrats on your acceptance to great law schools. I am waitlisted at two schools but I feel that I should wait simply because I really want a GREAT LEGAL education and I dont want to just get by at a school thats not really doing well. Im also from GA living in Atlanta right now working a major law firm but wouldnt mind getting out of the south for a while. You are a very strong black woman and thats why I LOVE YOU ALL!!! Bc a black man gets no better support from his own sister.. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU...for your inspiration. p.s. i can forward you some information on summer associate program for the firm Im working for if you are interested.

thank you so much for putting your numbers out there. I would love to know more about your soft factors. What did you write your personal statement about?

Congrats to your acceptance to William and Mary. I to have a low LSAT (145) and a pretty decent GPA (3.15) and I'm reluctant to try to apply to the top tiered schools. Unlike you, I don't qualify for the fee waver, which is a real bummer. I actually have to fork out cash to apply to schools. I'm just going to apply to the lower T1 schools and the T4 schools around my area (San Diego). Hopefully something turns up from that.
