what were your stats
3.2 GPA, 154 LSAT. Also excellent softs for the school, IMHO. My softs were so strong, I was kinda surprised to be waitlisted. You can see this stuff by clicking my username, btw.
Good luck, btw, all you guys and gals on the waitlist. Worst case scenario, you can always retake the LSAT and apply for Spring if this is the school you really want to attend.
7/25 still no newss
