@StripedPicayuneRobin: I'm so sorry to hear that. There is still hope! I applied at the beginning of December and mine still says pending verification! Did your application just jump from pending verification to receiving an email with a decision?

wise** lol
Some staff are nice and some are cut-throat. Lot of solo attorneys that come out of TSU or at least that’s what the employment summary says. Howard is better for big law but they do closed book exams. Not sure if TSU does tho
Does anyone know how long it takes to hear back after you go under review? I just went under review today!
About a month or a little more. I applied 11/30 and got an A today

They've got some mess going on with administration. I'm not trying to talk down on TSU but both deans are stepping down after this year is over
I'm so torn if I should give Thurgood a try or what....
