Still UR as of 07/30/24... Should I send a LOCI before they've even made a decision?
Anyone else under review yet?
is under review the same as "Application review in progress"?
yes
i think decisions are coming this friday, they seem to like the fourth friday of october
@EliteColorfulDevil: where are you getting that info from?
look at last year, first round. Then look at prior years. If they follow the same pattern, I would expect a release either this friday, or the first friday of november.
following up, for it to be under review does application review in progress in the substatus bar count for that or does it have to be updated in the communcations section?
Mine currently has no status or date but just a substatus that saids application review in progress
I believe that, yes, application review in progress means your application is under review. When mine changed I put it into google and it seems that for previous years, that was considered “going under review”.
Anyone hear back today?

Hi I just got my lsat result and got a 157. Not what I was expecting if im being honest and planing to retake it soon. I wanted to know if someone knows realistically what are my chances of getting in with a 157. I’m already a lawyer in argentina, graduated law school last year and I have been working full time at a law firm in the us.
