@ASU11 you get the feeler again?

Enjoy NC sloth!! I'm so sad to be leaving the south

@JupitersMoons i did not, was there another email sent out?

@ASU11 I got another email at approx 3:22pm MT

So 40 mins ago

wait where u going orangutan

omg i can’t believe we goin to law school awe

@JupitersMoons what did it say, i just submitted my Wl form maybe that is why I did not get it

I wanted to reach out about the decision on your JD application to the Sandra Day O’Connor College of Law at Arizona State University. We will continue to review our applicant pool throughout the summer. At this point in the year, I believe it is unlikely we will be able to make many more offers of admission. We were impressed with your achievemen

ts and capabilities. Your application showed potential for success in law school. Your accomplishments, talents, and abilities demonstrated you would contribute to our community. We truly hope you may be able to wait with us for the coming weeks. Additionally, if we are unable to offer you admission this year, we would highly encourage you to reap

ply for next year. The spring is the most competitive time for admission with a rolling admissions process. Reapplying at an earlier point in the application cycle in the following year can enhance your application. We look forward to staying in touch. We sincerely hope you will continue to consider ASU Law highly. Kind regards, Amy

I haven't yet filled out the form so could be the case

ohh maybe that could be why, i did not get that email for some reason let me check my spam

phew I remembered to not include my first name in there

phew

what time did u get ur email from them this morning about the WL

It wasn't from admissions, it was from an Amy Beiler Best

I have faith wre can both get in

oh interesting

11:46am MT

bestie I want you to have it to be so honest

You want it more than me, lol

thats too nice of u but still we both deserve this

ASU Law - application update Inbox Damania, Chitra 10:46 AM (4 hours ago)

thats what i got this morning so i think its the same time as yours

Yes mine was also four hours ago

ASU is my mom's school of choice

though I think she's stoked about Caitlin Clark

thats so weird they sent a feeler that quick

lmfao

LMAO

fair enough

that's what I'm saying, I haven't even had a moment to fill out their form and their opt. blurb

idk

since we are in diff time zones i might get it when its that time for me

im in az and rn its 3:18 pm

oh yeah i forget u arizona freaks and ur pick me time zones (i'm in Utah, hey state neighbor!!!)

so i might get it in 4 mins

yea we got some wack ass timing

Arizona is a lovely state tho

too hot fr

nah i hate me some winter

I'll go somewhere with perpetual sun anyday of the week

fair enough

Agreeeeeeeed, give me heat and sun, I can't handle winter

wait what did ur WL email say, do u think ours say the same thing

probably

too automated to be distinct

maybe the question I should be asking is which state has more favorable winters, WL or NDLS

"After careful consideration of your JD application to the Sandra Day O’Connor College of Law at Arizona State University, we would like to invite you to join our waitlist. Although we are unable to offer you admission at this time, after a thorough application rev"

does it start like that

@bigfatsloth HLS (!!) where it is COLD (I am grateful just cold-averse)

Almost certainly better winters at W&L

@ASU11 yes same

@ParallelAgreeableOrangutan did u also get a feeler email

@ParallelAgreeableOrangutan damn point for W&L

dang we all just numbers on a page rn

r u gunna send an LOCI?

No I left the waitlists I was on a while ago

ohhh gotchu

this is such an anxiety inducing process i hate it

no and I will prob withdraw from ASU atp

schools have to want me and act like it at this point in the cycle

^^

thats a good mentality

i respect that

NDLS ur on thin ice

HARVARD WTF GOOD FOR U ORANGUTAN OMGGG

orangutan go public challenge

lemme see that tracker

It's so ugly haha, but I'll put it public for a few minutes just for you

also if you're cold averse we can switch places dw i like the cold (ignore that im going to new york)

Thanks sloth y'all are so kind here

@bigfatsloth im a heat averse carolinian so it is actually not great rn in my opinion but welcome! if you make your way a little westward youll be in my territory

New York cold is doable to me

ok lets switch ill take harvard!

As in NYC, idk about the rest of the state

Cardozo is NYC right?

yep

sheeeeesh ur a t20 warrior

im surprised with that nyu R you're above both medians but hey harvard is harvard

i call people who applied january onwards second semester applicants lol you're a second semester success

Yeah it hurt to get Rs from Berkeley and NYU, they must really have not liked what I wrote

Not that I felt entitled, but I thought my stats would at least get me a WL

But it only takes one, and my one feels like an actual miracle

I don't have a UGPA bc my uni was pass/fail, am i cooked

wtf cobra let’s hang out can we go on a mountain together

im not that far west but sure

i gotta pass this damn patent bar first tho

i actually study in my undergrad library because i think it makes me more productive lol

I wonder if u had polarizing essays

why am i just learning that you're co 2027 esoterica

Oh im not

very silly of me

oh

Maybe i made a mistake

Honestly I think my essays were fairly neutral, but I guess that's all in the eyes of the filenreader

Im going to law school in the fall and if i have stats there they’re not real either

thats actually very esoteric of you to have a different year and have no schools

and different stats

only the real ones know you

I had somewhat similar stats to you and got a fuck ton of waitlists

WW

Talking to PAO

But i do kinda wish i was going to school in ny too

i was considering reapplying but i spent too much money this cycle and i didn't look for jobs while taking the lsat so i didn't think being unemployed at home would be helpful to me

Okay i gotta get back on that stairmaster bye folks

good luck o7

Ugh esoterica come back

I have so many questions for youuuu

Oh okay sure what’s up

I guess i can type and stairmaster

Did you also apply late? Were your essays polarizing? Where are you going to school???

not really, maybe more than i thought, michigan

But my only hard rejections were at HYS which is why i was surprised by ur results

Seems really arbitrary to get rejected by berkeley and nyu are u conservative and/or a big law aspirant?

Yeah my essays were PI-focused and my WE shows that track record lol idk

Twin

I think i was too PI focused for some schools tbh

I lean left, if they googled me there's proof of that, I'm truly puzzled but it's ok

Their minds are inscrutable

The black box ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

But i do think everything worked out for the best

I did have to write addenda for various c&f things but they weren't, like, felonies

Various wow

i know people say not to put weight on transferring but i also 1) want to keep my gpa as high as i can and 2) am deathly terrified of getting my grades back and them being abysmal

I took time off during college, so that was one

i think they just didn't clock that you were standing on business orangutan

Probably

it wasnt clocking to them

And got terminated from a job once without explanation or warning (they literally didn't even respond to the state's request for information when I applied for unemployment lol)

**** camera tickets for like 4 mph over

Whoa haha the word was **** that filter is sure filtering

all of those things sound like either every school would care a lot about those or they wouldn't care at all

black box moment

I am trying to type a word that starts with sp and rhymes with greed lol send help

Lmfao

LOL

@cryptoanon chillllllllll

oh its cryptanon i think

Ahaha @cryptanon I can't even type it with 33 instead of ee

Wait run that back cobra? About transferring

@cryptanon can we add some autoscroll-to-bottom feature when new messages show up so i dont have to manually scroll down to see new ones

@ParallelAgreeableOrangutan oh i was just rambling in the context of how my cycle went with so many Rs and WLs, i was considering reapplying with work experience but it is very tough to get an entry level job in my industry right now. i missed the window that people generally apply for that because i was trying to focus on my lsat

yo i been hanging with the like 6 other students who also already moved here for school in fall and lowkey like

so instead i was thinking about transferring, but of course thats not guaranteed and i am deathly afraid of having a shit gpa after 1L fall considering you don't know grades till the end of the sem

i dont enjoy hanging out with them is tht bad

ugh

@bigfatsloth LOL no that just means you gotta find other ppl

ok its making me fricking nervous like

ok ur right

more ppl needa move here asap cobra come over

i only went to winston salem once in my life

on a field trip

its kinda flipping nice i think i like it

theres sm mountains bro i be goin on the mountains cobra

nice

thank u

wait winston salem is to the west of where i am im dumb

i meant if you come eastward you'll be in my territory LMAO

oops

why was i thinking greenville

omg i havent gone east yet

im going to myrtle beach for the fourth caan i stop by

i will be on the other side of the country

lol

why u runnin from me

i am escaping the HEAT

its too hot ova here

the thing about reapplying is that for it to be an effective value proposition you have to be extremely confident you can improve at least one if not multiple aspects of your application

yeah the work experience would've been good cuz i was in the running for a very nice fixed-term program at a big company

Tbh work experience alone is not gonna be make or break

but they ran out of space because i didn't do my last interview at the same time as everyone else, it was lsat weekend

WE + applying early + stronger recommendations would've been the idea

Yeah @c0bra1 law school curves are risky. Will you be happy (read: are your goals attainable) with a Cardozo degree? If so you should go! If not, have you thought about trying to get a job outside of your industry/field of study?

If you want NYU i would really strongly recommend trying to retake the LSAT

i maxed my attempts

ugh im boutta go on fricking bumble bff

because i couldn't figure out what was wrong with my practice testing

Oh okay I see. In that case I think if ur stats are unchangeable I would be resume and essay maxxing

@ParallelAgreeableOrangutan yeah im chill with cardozo i just have an affinity for nyu because of how the people i know have spoken about it

Where would your stronger recs come from? Was the idea to get them from your new employer

I don’t think stronger recs are super important as long as the old ones weren’t actively hurting you

yeah because it would've been under the same manager i had previously worked for, but instead of a summer i would've known him for 2 years

^^ I think esoterica is correct

thats fair

i think the main thing that hurt me for my target schools was just applying late

Tbh it’s like the writing sample. Basic competency test that you can find someone willing to write it for you and they can think of something nice to say about you

I would get a ton of people you trust to be good and discerning writers + critics to look at your essays

yeah thats why i was mostly talking about getting work experience and making my essay stronger as a result because i wouldn't just be talking about things i learned as a college student

@ParallelAgreeableOrangutan Your essays were good if you got Harvard. You just applied too late. That's all. Berk and the others were just full.

Wtf. What account am I on. Where did this one come from.

Haha who are you

transferring aside i do want to be generally successful in 1L, im just scared of the curve and the fact that you just get graded on a final. i also really want to know my class schedule so i can figure my social life out lmao

I am Dkk of course. Let me get off this account now that I changed the name.

That's better. Yohoho and a bottle of rum. Everyone likes pirates.

Cobra if you end up reapplying I'll look at your essays

If you guys R&R, you should only do it to go to BYU as a safety. Become Mormon. That's a huge soft for them and they will let you in. Gotta take the LDS route as a safety.

The whole grading situation feels daunting to me too, but it seems that people do fine as long as they do the work all along throughout the course

Cobra you should take any of those schools. My stats are a 3.44 and a 168. If you have no more LSAT's this is literally the peak probably.

And didn't chatgpt their way through undergrad, I suppose

yeah im going to cardozo

Excellent

The pirates ride at Disneyland is the best ride in the park. The new star wars ride was better but the cannons are broken on it now.

sank too much money in for the other things to make a difference, and the fact that i haven't interviewed for new grad roles while the job market is continuing to suck is the big reason why im just gonna start my jd lol

@Gambi-Devil-Of-The-Sea ihave never been to disneyland

i can go on another rant about my LSAT problems but thats done and buried so now i just have to move on lol

When you make a bunch of money as an attorney, go and take your like spouse their and uhh kids or something. Idk, I am going on the 14th of July.

@esoterica didnt see your message about essays, i had them reviewed by every professor in one of the programs im in, all of whom are in philosophy or otherwise law-adjacent, so i don't think that was a big problem unless they all lied to my face lol

@Gambi-Devil-Of-The-Sea i have been to disney world and universal several times, do you think land is better than world? i honestly like universal better than the parks themselves

It's honestly a mess to go to Disneyland rather than disneyworld. If you live on the east coast, just go to florida. It's got a much better pace to it.

ok yeah thats what i thought

Land is better for originality and its a great experience but once you have done Disneyland, you only ever have to do world again. World is much better. Tokyo Disney is the best.

harry potter, star wars, and epcot are my main points of attraction lol

i want to go to tokyo disney so bad

also disney is crazy expensive i remember it being expensive when i was a kid but now its like 10 times worse

Man Harry Potter Universal Studios and Super Mario land are awesome.

when im an attorney it will probably cost a kidney per park

Yeah, that or with these new loan systems they can chop up your Kidney and you can give it to them in 4 installments over a year.

LOL buy now pay later one kidney part per park

that might actually be the future

My law school sent me their quarterly magazine and I can't believe how Artsy this thing is. I knew the school was very artistic but man. This is crazy.

Maybe indeed!

Chat isn't updating messages correctly today. Weird.

Hi

i have a confession to make

my ropes sometimes

sometimes they aren’t that thick

no wayyyyy

That's more healthy as I have told you in the past. They should not be thick. That means something is wrong with your balls.

****

Well that's unexpected, I'll fix tomorrow

hey cryptanon is 2025-2026 being the current cycle meaning that thats your 1L year? or is is that thats the year you're applying

@c0bra1 there should already be auto scrolling. I'm guessing it's not working for you?

nope never has

On mobile?

desktop

What happens if you refresh?

if the cycle is the year you're applying then the calculations for class of ___ are wrong, 2024-2025 admissions cycle would be class of 2028 if they start in fall 2025

if i refresh it starts at showing me stuff from 3PM

and i gotta scroll all the way down

2025-2026 application cycle from around 9/2025-summer/2026. Fall 2026 would be your 1L year

so that would make those people class of 2029

I will fix the off by 1 error, ty

yuh

I'll tweak the auto scroll too

swagalicious

unfortunately i suck at web development or else i would offer my services

i am a data person

The reports are much appreciated! I added the bugs to https://lsd.law/feedback?status=open -- using the feedback page is the best way to make sure I see the report. I can't always stay in top of chat

Oops, I see that you did do that

I didn't actually expect you to see the tag haha, ty for coming to the rescue nonetheless

yuhh

for some reason I can scroll down on the dashboard on mobile but not up

L

@JupitersMoons can I dm you?

sure bestie

someone really needs to gamify lsat learning

LSAT Demon dashboard.

@c0bra1 is autoscrolling working now?

@cryptanon Tried to message you on here. Sent an email.

Oh sweet, ty. Saw your email. Have a nice weekend!

what cycle is everyone applying for

@cryptanon yes it seems to be fixed now ty

26-27

ooooo. new, more understandable dots

oh god i just submitted the spivey pro bono form and it lists NemoPropheta as my name because of my email

abort abort

are name changes retroactive

frick

Lol, I did the same thing on all my apps.

TWICE

i normally use my .edu email but they disabled our docs access which prevents me from filling out google forms

Did there used to be a spot on each school's page that showed GPA and LSAT 25th/median/75th for the current cycle (LSD user-reported, obv)?

Gamified lsat studying is actually not a bad idea

like duolingo style streaks and stuff

little microlearning sessions and stuff to keep you engaged, like just doing 1 LR question or something

we're back to the classic font, woohoo!

@cryptanon can we have a bio box too like before

also mods i have a feature suggestion

eh nvm

@candy yeah, it's coming back soon ish. Everyone's previous writing will be restored. I just have other things on my plate rn

@MightyUnableSphinx what is it?

I was thinking it might be cool to just have GPA/LSAT/Softs (whatever you guys think is a composite index that is actually predictive) number for each profile and then build out like a linear regression or something for "rank of school admitted to" and then each user on their end gets a little prediction thing like

"Based on your profile we predict that the highest ranking school you will be admitted to will rank 20-30 (or whatever)"

I think probably not the most useful thing ever but would've been something cool to see during the user onboarding stage like RIGHT AFTER I input my stats

I've been thinking about something like this, actually. Not tied to a regression to try to predict admissions, but simply a comparison to other users stats, because people do like numbers.

A single LSD score, "how high are you?"

But, as you say, it is of extremely limited productive use

I'll add it to the feature backlog

Ty for the suggestion!

I think 7sage already has a predictor too
