There has been no words of rejections. I don't think it has been sent out yet.

Joe said his friend got one...

a friend of mine who has a 3.9+ gpa and an lsat around 160ish just got rejected from the waitlist... so apparently rejections are real. has anyone else heard of any more rejection letters going out?

That's the first I've heard of that - YIKES. I'll be home to check my mailbox in a few minutes...

maybe it will come tomorrow.

thanks

hehe...

I'm out of town - so I won't know until Monday. Nothing from UCLA Thursday though.

The last time I posted this - several weeks ago - there were only about 2 other peeps going there... are there more now???
If I don't get off of UCLA's waitlist - this is where I'll be... Anyone else out there going to Pepperdine? I'm going to need someone to argue with

Hey VC, what are you doing before Pepper?

Yep.

I have a friend who got in after his father donated a fairly large amount of money---he scored a 145 on his LSAT...great school indeed

Can I be your friend's friend?

You want to be dumb as dirt and pay your way into law school? What's mind boggling is the fact that someone would pay to get into a number 88 school

Just so you know... "dumb as dirt" is not defined by a 145 LSAT score. As I've said before... the most intelligent people are probably not in law school, and are instead fighting world hunger in 3rd world countries, stoping whale slaughter in the artic, and teaching in inner city schools... who cares if you can do well on a stupid logic game if you can't make the world a better place. Who knows, that dude with a 145 could win the next Nobel Peace Prize... you never know

I'm glad you know who sits where on a subway, and who's selling oranges as opposed to watermelons

Gandhi was a lawyer. jsia

Ah, so true...

but somehow I'm doubting he used an LSAT score to get into Law School.

hi, i just got offered a spot in their evening program...

trying to decide now between USD full-time and LLS part-time...anyone else stuck in this conflict??

any input would be greatly appreciated. thank you~

Would you definitely choose LLS if you were in the full time program? When I got off the waitlist I chose Loyola over USD (where I was about to go) mainly because of its advantage over USD in prominence in cities I wanted to work/live (LA/SF). Also, living in LA for 3 years during school definitely appealed to me more than living in SD.

I know, right!

haha... don't get me wrong, SD is beautiful and I can see why people love it so much so I won't argue against it, but its just a matter of personal preference. I'm not even a big fan of LA but its a larger metropolitan area (I hate calling it a city) with so much going on, and SD seems much more chill and relaxed, which is a place I'd want to live maybe when I'm a little older. A couple other factors like diversity and proximity to friends/family also come into play for me.

Anyway, they're both nice but San Francisco still tops the list for me

Well, duh! There is no better city! (That I know of).
