Duke Law Class of 2014 Forum

Last year's data shows only 32 sub 170 acceptances out of the first two pages (~200 acceptances, not ranked). Clearly the higher LSATs are over-represented, and it would seem logical that a higher percentage of such people would enjoy scholarship offers than is perhaps the norm. Right?

That is true, so maybe LSN isn't a good place like I thought.. Either way, we'll find out in a few days (hopefully good news )

It's fine, just not an accurate sample of the overall pool, which we already pretty much knew. Here's hoping to money!

Anyone here going to the reception in DC on Wednesday?

[mr_toad]

I wish! My schedule sucks for all ASWs and receptions for every school...

[ScarryBakhtin]

I shall be at the ASW...

[lakerfanimal]

got the scholarship notice. 60k

got the scholarship notice. 60k

Getting around that (i.e. 48k-60k) would pretty much end my cycle.... congrats!

54k! Over the f-ing moon... Would take a game-changer to be anywhere but Durham next year.

Haha, awesome man. Congrats.

Thanks everyone... I feel very lucky. Thank you TLS for all the wisdom and laughter of the last 10-odd months... and good luck to those still waiting for acceptances/scholly offers.

That's awesome! Getting a great scholly from one of your top choices must feel awesome!

Wow!!!! Congrats! So happy for you

[ScarryBakhtin]

HUGE congrats!!! Any chance it'll be a game changer?

At this point I don't really know. I got a finalist invite for one of NYU's named schollies, so that would be a game changer since it's a full ride. But if I don't get that it's nice to know that I have a good-sized cushion elsewhere.

OK so quick interruption of scholly news for a q I had... Do most people in Duke Law have cars, bikes, or neither?

I'm pretty sure most people have cars. If you have visited you would understand why. Also, ASW mentions most people have a car.

You need a car.

@lawmonkey.

Damn! but not surprised... I'm more surprised by my 54k than by your 90k (given that Duke is my highest-ranked acceptance, whereas you've broken T6).

[alphamoose]

Got my scholarship letter! Very happy and will definitely be attending ASW to check Duke out.
