CondemnedPuffyGnome

13:26

:(

pug

13:26

omg what are ur stats :( im sorry

trees1234567

13:26

no need to apologixe

trees1234567

13:26

this is totally expected lol

manifestT14acceptances

13:27

there are people who suggest the fact that applicants who apply early statistically do better is more of a correlation thing than causation thing

CondemnedPuffyGnome

13:27

it sucks though, applying is a lot of work

babybunny

13:27

yes self-selecting

KnowledgeableRitzyWasp

13:27

Yeah but applying late dooms your app

manifestT14acceptances

13:27

but it definitely wouldnt hurt and if it could boost then why not

pug

13:27

rt manifest. i wouldnt say my app was DOOMED by applying in feb as a splitter

trees1234567

13:27

3.83/164 and I blanketed the T14 except for cornell and then did vandy and ucla

trees1234567

13:27

my softs are cool and are like a T2.5

pug

13:28

i got almost a full ride at 2 schools and then like 50% at NDLS.

KnowledgeableRitzyWasp

13:28

Yeah you can still get in some places but you’re looking at double to triple the chance of being WL if you apply late

GuardianDevil

13:28

have yall been discussing SLS at all because im kinda shocked that it's 2 days before deposit deadline and i haven't heard a peep

trees1234567

13:28

@CondemnedPuffyGnome: I agree - I think I have v much resigned to the fact that whats meant to happen will happen

pug

13:28

but i suppose i was doomed at places like duke but thats more on them lmao. like why have a deadline of feb 15 if you wont consider anyone who applied after dec 31

trees1234567

13:29

@pug: they want the money!

It still hasn't sunk in yet that after seven years I'm finally leaving the teaching profession. It's so bitter-sweet.

manifestT14acceptances

13:29

i think because i was such an extreme splitter, the odds that schools would give me a decision before going through most of their pile were low

jb2028

13:29

Truth is probably somewhere in between. Yes, people who have their LSAT where they need it and their essays + LORs ready to go September 1st are likely competitive in other ways. But, some schools (e.g., Duke) explicitly say late applications are at a disadvantage.

@trees1234567: me too frankly. but I take some solace in having gone through this all once already. I think without LG I can do much better on the lsat as well

babybunny

13:29

i have unique softs that keep me tied to the northeast for at least a year so i could go to school now in this area or reapply to a broader range of schools next cycle when i don't have that constraint

SplitterusClitterus

13:29

if im on columbia hold/waitlist/reserve whatever its called do i still write a LOCI

pug

13:29

i would agree with jb here. its a mix of both

GuardianDevil

13:30

also re: @SplitterusClitterus if I already wrote a hold LOCI do I write another lol

KnowledgeableRitzyWasp

13:30

Yeah the statistical difference is probably not entirely explained by app date, it’s definitely a mix of both

@CondemnedPuffyGnome: I agree with you tho LG was my strong suit but I know the LSAT is a learned test and I improved on LR down the stretch
