I'm going to be auditioning to teach at Kaplan soon, and was wondering if anyone had any advice. Do you know roughly what percentage of people who get invited to audition actually get the job? Any anecdotes? Thanks.

I'm in at Harvard as of today! Todd Morton, the Dean of Admissions, called me on Thursday, and we had a phone interview on Friday. During the interview, he asked whether I would definitely go to Harvard if I were to be accepted... I said that the answer was almost certainly yes (keyword: almost). In the course of our discussion, he said that virtually every offer of admission has already been given and that a select pool of candidates were being called to compete for the remaining spots. I followed up with a call to the admissions office today and was informed by Mr. Morton himself that I'd been accepted! Good luck to everyone else who's still waiting... it's been a long ride.

I wasn't sure where to post this, but hopefully someone here can help me out. I was just thinking that I have no idea what most law students do about food. At my undergrad college, graduate students are allowed to be on meal plan, but those who eat in the dining halls are typically the social outcast types. Does anyone know what the food situation is at NYU and Columbia, specifically? Do there tend to be cafeterias devoted to law or graduate students? Thanks.

I've been complete at Harvard for a while (since mid to late November, I think) and still haven't heard from them. Based on last year's numbers, I'm wondering if this means that I'm about to be dinged or waitlisted. Anyone with a deeper knowledge of LSN care to speculate as to whether or not this long wait means bad news?

From posts I've read and people I've talked to, most of the comparison between NYU and Columbia tends to rest on their respective locations in Greenwich Village and Morningside Heights. While the difference in neighborhoods is definitely important, I was wondering if anyone had heard anything about academics at the two schools. Obviously both are very top, but does one have particular strengths and/or weaknesses that sets it apart from the other? I've heard that Columbia is more corporate-focused and more competitive... does anyone have any anecdotal experience that suppports this? Thanks a lot.
