VerdantRampantSloth
14:54

PeeledBanana
15:30

VerdantRampantSloth
15:48
I think it was a round this time last wednesday
PeeledBanana
16:29
330 central and i have heard nothing so far
VerdantRampantSloth
16:30
oh well, more waiting then
PeeledBanana
16:31
i went through two waves with no response
PeeledBanana
16:31
and seeing that the green is getting smaller and smaller, Im quite nervous lol
VerdantRampantSloth
17:50
@PeeledBanana: did your interviewer say the 15th specifically?
PeeledBanana
18:36
yes she said 11 or 15
PeeledBanana
18:36
schedules can always shift, but I was sitting here with my butt clenched all day man. I think UC is only going to have one more major wave
PeeledBanana
18:36
but going to 21-22 cycle, the last wave is all WL and R
VerdantRampantSloth
18:45
interview invites were sent out as recently as 3/1 so there will be at least 1 more A wave
PeeledBanana
19:05
bro, give me some of your positive energy
22:58
i guess this wouldn't be the first time internet rumors about pending law school admissions waves turned out not to be true
PeeledBanana

Uchicago "communications" disappeared and then reappeared today. COuld this mean anything?
I don't think so, it happens every once and a while to me and I haven't thought anything of it
What if you went complete in March? Are there more interview invites coming?
15:46
Applied 12/3 and haven't heard anything. Complete radio silence. Should I write a LOCI?
PeeledBanana
18:17
im wondering the same thing too
PeeledBanana
18:17
i submitted mine about a week after you. got the interview in feb and nothing so far.
Are we expecting an A wave today?
13:05
I genuinely have no clue when to expect anything from them at this point, just crossing fingers and praying lmao
14:22
I had my interview yesterday, dying from the anticipation
@xzouv: did they say how long to expect a decision?
15:38
3/29 seems to be a popular decision date based on the data from the last few years. I would be surprised if they released decisions this week if they are planning to on 3/29.
15:34
Did Chi give no WAVE
