long week ahead! Has everyone deposited elsewhere so far?
I withdrew my A so hopefully it gets sent to one of y'all this week
@DopeyElephant: Aww Dopey I guess that means you made your decision on where youre going to attend? Congrats! :)
General question for anyone waitlisted whether at Cardozo or elsewhere, are you guys worried about "not being good enough?" I'm worried if I go somewhere I was taken off the waitlist with lower than average stats, I'll be at the bottom of the barrel overall vs. going somewhere im at/below averages and thinking I have a higher chance of being top 10% of the class or so
Once you get into law school your lsat won’t matter. Everyone starts for the most part on the same level it’s a clean slate for everyone
I would go with the school that offers the most money you’re going to be a lawyer regardless it’s just better to not have more debt

i totally understand that feeling of inadequacy. for the past few months its been really mentally hard for me, but its important to remember the destination
bringbooze

@DopeyElephant: congratulations!!!
bringbooze
13:36
hopefully we starting hearing back this week.
waitlist buddy!
This is all a trying experience, its always comforting to know others are experiencing the same thing

@SteadyQuarrelsomeCat: omg waitlist pal!!!
bringbooze
14:38
it looks like the last time they took someone off the wl was about 2 weeks ago
@SteadyQuarrelsomeCat: yeah I'm going to risk GW at sticker so I'll let y'all know how the debt works out haha
I've been lurking here for a bit and saw you two still active so hoping for the best!
