I think the only reason I was accepted is because I won three CFB National Championships in Retro Bowl with WFU.

Why would a school put that your status is available but make you wait.... horrible lol.

WTF is waitlist/rejected? They got an R email after waitlisted?

StripedBumpyBeagle

0:08

@LegallyAsianAmerican: yes- schools will usually WL people, then if way more commit than expected, they "release" you from the WL aka rejected

StripedBumpyBeagle

0:08

its to slim down the WL to a smaller pool since they anticipate only a small number of admits off the WL compared to other years

hey guys! confused because this year's wake forest app says that submitting an LSAT score isn't required. How are y'all navigating this? Thanks

TransSplitter

My lsat was really high and I thought I had great softs and a compelling reason to go there specifically and while my gpa was below 25th like I wouldn't think they'd reject me after 8 freaking days just for being a splitter
